Welcome to my website. Here, you will get a glimpse into who I am and some of the advocacy activities I have have been involved in since being diagnosed with Parkinson's in 2015.

​

I'm passionate about raising awareness of Parkinson's and Young Onset Parkinson's through sharing my experiences and unique perspective. Whether it's through a keynote speech or an after-dinner talk, I am available provide inspitration and valuable insights into living with a chronic condition.
