Biography

As the parent of a child with medical complexity and disabilities, I wanted to build positive relationships with my child’s care team. Now, in my work with pediatricians and others in health care professions, my passion is finding ways to share personal stories and lived experience to help broaden the perspectives of those who care for families like mine. Storytelling is a powerful tool that can impact the delivery of quality care through building meaningful relationships between providers and families.
