I’m a public health professional, marketing strategist, writer, and patient advocate focused on helping organizations communicate with clarity, empathy, and impact. My work sits at the intersection of healthcare, disability, equity, and storytelling.

My career began in sexual and reproductive health, where I spent years helping young people navigate complex systems and access care. Since then, I’ve worked across healthcare, nonprofits, and mission-driven organizations to improve communication, engagement, and access—translating complex information into content and strategies that meet people where they are.

Over the years, my work has expanded to include healthcare marketing, patient engagement, provider education, content strategy, community building, and advocacy. I’ve led marketing initiatives, developed health communication campaigns, created educational content, built patient and provider engagement efforts, and advised organizations seeking to better connect with the communities they serve.

As someone living with complex chronic illness and disability, I bring both professional expertise and lived experience to my work. Navigating healthcare systems as both a public health professional and patient has deepened my commitment to accessible communication, health equity, and patient-centered care. I believe the strongest strategies are built not only on data and expertise, but also on trust, empathy, and an understanding of real-world barriers.

In addition to my professional work, I have spent more than a decade in disability and patient advocacy, including nonprofit board leadership, community building, and initiatives focused on health equity and representation. I am particularly passionate about improving how organizations engage with patients, communicate complex health information, and build systems that better serve historically overlooked communities.

I’m also a writer with a passion for overlooked stories, archives, and history. My current longform project explores the contradictions of democracy, patriotism, and race through more than 150 World War II letters exchanged between an American serviceman and his partner during the war.
