On the morning of September 26, 2025, I was involved in a serious motorcycle accident on Highway 101 near Morgan Hill, CA. While traveling in the carpool lane, a white SUV made an illegal lane change, striking me and causing me to crash into another vehicle. The SUV fled the scene, leaving me unconscious on the freeway.

Thanks to the quick actions of several good people who stopped to help, I was able to make it out alive. I’m incredibly grateful to them, and to still have the chance to continue my journey and serve.

Unfortunately, my recovery has been challenging. My knee was severely injured, and I currently can’t bend it or walk normally. I’ve been told I’ll need at least two and a half months to recover — possibly more — which means I’ll be out of work for an extended period.

This accident has brought unexpected medical, therapy, and living expenses, and being unable to work has made things even harder. I’m staying focused on healing so I can get back on my feet and return to duty, but I could really use some support during this time.

If you’re able to help, whether it’s through a donation, sharing this page, or keeping me in your thoughts and prayers, I’d be deeply grateful. Every bit of support helps me move closer to recovery and back to serving and working again.

Thank you all for your time, kindness, and support.
