I'm thrilled to have joined Lurie Children's Hospital as the new Section Head of Oncology during Childhood Cancer Awareness Month.  The team here does an incredible job caring for pediatric and young adult cancer patients and their families.  As a clinician and a researcher, I am so enthusiastic about the work that has been done and is yet to come. Joining and contributing to this team felt like an exceptional opportunity, and now I'm asking for your help to get the job done.

If you're in the Chicago area, please consider coming out and cheering us on.  Any donation can make an impact for the patients we care for:

$25  helps provide educational resources that guide families through a new cancer diagnosis.

$50 supports survivorship care through the STAR Program for children who have completed treatment.

$100 helps offset the cost of genetic counseling and testing for families at risk of hereditary cancer syndromes.

$250 supports tumor tissue banking that helps researchers better understand childhood cancers.

$500 helps train the next generation of pediatric oncology specialists.

$1,000 can support neuropsychological testing to help children overcome challenges caused by cancer or treatment

Would you consider making a donation to support my race?

Together, we can move closer to a future where every child not only survives cancer, but thrives.

Thank you for being part of this important cause.
