Why families come to me

Families come to me when they feel overwhelmed by medical bills, insurance denials, coverage problems, confusing healthcare processes, or difficulty getting clear answers from providers and insurers.

Lived experienceMy advocacy is deeply personal. I am a cancer survivor and the parent of a child who faced a complex, multi-round battle with cancer, giving me firsthand experience navigating serious illness, medical errors, conflicting information, insurance issues, overwhelming medical bills, and the challenges families face within the healthcare system. My entire career has also been spent in and around healthcare, giving me both the personal and professional perspective to help families navigate difficult situations.
