Visionaries look to the future—and see infinite possibility.
They challenge the status quo—and make the impossible possible.
They boldly imagine a better world – and lead the charge to create it.

The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society was built on that same vision - of a better world - one without blood cancers.

I am a visionary; I have a vision for a world without cancer, but I need your help.

This year, I’m proud to be a part of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s (LLS) Student Visionaries of the Year Campaign, working to raise as much as possible for LLS’s mission.

As a global leader in the fight against blood cancer, LLS:

• Funds cutting-edge research leading to breakthroughs in immunotherapy, genomics and personalized medicine that are improving and saving the lives of patients
• Provides free education and support for blood cancer patients and families, including personalized, one-on-one support, assistance with identifying and enrolling in clinical trials, and more.
• Mobilizes thousands of advocates to drive policy changes that accelerate the development of new cancer treatments and break down barriers to care.

I am taking on this challenge because many people close to me have been greatly affected by blood cancer, and I want to do my part to help cure this disease. 

​​​​​​​Mr. Brent Mesquit is a close family friend and a multiple myeloma survivor. He was diagnosed over 10 years ago, underwent two stem cell transplants, and is currently in remission and on maintenance therapy. Over the last 10 years, he has been fighting incredibly hard to beat cancer, and he did all of it while continuing to take care of his family and, luckily for me, organizing some great family vacations. His strength and positive attitude throughout his journey has truly inspired me and the impact the diagnosis had on his life has given me a determination to help find a cure for this terrible disease.

Please consider joining this fight by making a donation. All donations are greatly appreciated and tax-deductible. Please visit my website often and tell friends who would also like to donate!

Thanks to your support, my efforts will help ensure this generation is the last to see cancer.

On behalf of blood cancer patients everywhere, thank you!
