Help me support kids in need

I'm thrilled to be taking part in my first Chain Reaction Challenge Foundation ride in March 2025, where I'll be cycling 1,000 km over seven days to raise much needed funds for children in need. 

As someone new to cycling, this will be a huge personal challenge, but one I'm really excited about, as it supports a great cause. 

By supporting my ride, you're contributing directly to the Monash Children's Hospital and Starlight Foundation, helping them continue their vital work. Your donation, no matter how big or small, will make a meaningful impact on the lives of countless children and their families.

Professionally, I work as an Associate within the Investment Team at Qualitas. Chain Reaction also provides a great opportunity to connect with a diverse group of people, building both my personal and professional networks.

Thank you for your support and generosity.
