What is your day job?

Come to the Belmont Deli / Catering or Water’s Edge Cafe and try our popular California Club and say hello to me at my “day job”

What is your motivation to participate in Pelotonia?

That is easy! I love to ride my bike. I want to see a cancer free world. Additionally, I think that the staff at Pelotonia are the coolest people I know.

What is your secret to fundraising?

My secret to fundraising - Great family, friends and customers. I have participated every year. From the first year to now, I have a tip jar that I have at my deli. From that tip jar, I get most of my fundraising dollars.

What does Simply Community mean to you? (the team and the words)

• Simply Community is an amazing peloton.
• Simply - One goal to end cancer. Simple. Not easy. It will take us all working and riding together.
• Community - If the last few months have shown us anything it is the importance of community. We all have to depend on each other to do our part. We represent the breadth of the community. A true grassroots effort. One Goal; End Cancer.
