Bio

For the past few years, I’ve been learning more about melanoma and my brushes with it. My grandmother had it years ago, but seems to have knocked it out. I have had a few biopsies come back as severely dysplastic, and I’m wrestling with what seems like an unavoidable fate. I’m 26 years old, about to propose to my wonderful girlfriend, and hoping to start a family very soon.
