About

I am a recent high school graduate who was diagnosed with complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) when I was in the 5th grade. I was born with birth defect that caused me to have tarsal coalition in both feet which caused me to have CRPS and 4 major foot surgeries, I battled CRPS for 3 years. After months and months of therapy, I was able to begin living a more normal lifestyle. While I am incredibly lucky to be able to control my CRPS and live normally again, it is still something I think about everyday. That is why in the Fall of 2018 I will be embarking on a two and a half month bike ride across the US to raise awareness about CRPS. My father and I will be riding about 60 miles a day to complete the 3,000 mile journey and we will be riding from California to Florida over these months! CRPS has had a huge impact on my life and now I am looking forward to being able to give back to the CRPS community by spreading awareness about CRPS and donating to RSDSA, a non profit helping those diagnosed with CRPS and RSD. Thank you!

The ride’s original fundraising page has since closed. To support CRPS research and the people living with it, give to RSDSA.
