About me: I’m currently a graduate student at Colorado State University where I’m studying human nutrition and investigating lifestyle changes through both diet and exercise on cancer prevention. In addition, I’m dedicated to the Jordan Robert Mann Foundation, which was founded to design and implement effective ways to evaluate athletes for conditions related to sudden cardiac death. I enjoy discussing any general topic related to public health and medicine. Upon conclusion of a successful cycling career, I’d like to continue studying medicine, nutrition, or public health.
