I am actively seeking opportunities to work with organizations, causes, and individuals in the areas of health and wellness (specifically cancer, heart health, pregnancy and the postpartum period) as well as personal development, mental and emotional health, and spiritual discovery.

My goals that I hope to contribute through this site and our potential work together are:

1. To share my experience through writing and speaking opportunities as well as through patient advocacy projects looking for first-hand patient knowledge.
2. To help others who have experienced physical, mental, emotional and spiritual suffering due to illness or injury.
3. To enhance the healthcare community by broadening its perspective and allow for greater healing and hope within it.

You can learn more about my background, education, and work experience on my LinkedIn profile. Please contact with me any questions, ideas, feedback, etc.

I look forward to connecting!
