Patient collaboration in healthcare delivery and research development is a necessity. 

a Patient expert And dynamic Partner

Being born with a rare and chronic lung disease called cystic fibrosis, over the years of many hospital stays, doctor appointments, and procedures, I've learned the value of being a patient advocate for my own health. I believe in the importance of engaging patient communities to be active participants in healthcare across the continuum by empowering and educating them to collaborate with researchers, physicians, and pharmaceutical companies to improve disease outcomes.

With my science background, I have become an expert patient voice contributing to clinical trial development, research committees, developing patient engagement initiatives for biopharma, optimizing digital health platforms, and communicating with diverse stakeholders to deliver valuable patient insights to organizations to advance research and health.
