In December 2024, my life changed forever — I was diagnosed with skin cancer.

A word no one is ever prepared to hear.

Today, I’m incredibly grateful to say that I am one year skin cancer free. That milestone alone is worth celebrating, but it has also given me a deeper purpose — to give back, raise awareness, and support those who are still fighting or will one day hear the same words I did.

This March, I’m taking part in the March Cancer Charge to raise awareness and vital funds for the Cancer Council. But this year, I’m doing it differently.

I’m not doing it alone.

I’m proudly taking on this challenge alongside my work crew at Lawgix — a team that has supported, encouraged, and stood by me every step of the way. Walking (and charging) together reminds me just how powerful community really is. Cancer doesn’t discriminate, and neither does support — it takes all of us.

Every kilometre we clock up represents hope.

Every dollar raised helps fund life-saving research, prevention programs, and support services for individuals and families impacted by cancer.

This cause is deeply personal to me, but it’s also bigger than my own journey. It’s about early detection. It’s about support during the darkest moments. It’s about making sure future generations have better outcomes and better options.

I’m asking you to please sponsor me and help make every kilometre count. No amount is too small — every contribution makes a real difference.

Together, we can tell cancer exactly where to go.

Feel the Charge. Join me. And let’s make a difference — one step at a time.
