Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am a member of the Medical and Scientific Advisory Board for Fighting Blindness, and an active Vision Researcher at the Medical College of Wisconsin. I cannot express how impressed I am with the organization and how focused and committed they are to their core mission to Cure, Support, and Empower. So much so, that I dragged my 250lb (17.8 stone) self to Ireland last year and raised over 1,000 Euro to support their work.

Well, I'm doing it again this year (aiming to beat my 2:37 time from last year and beat my fundraising from last year), and am hoping you will consider donating to my page.
