Why I Became A Professional Health Care Advocate
My path to becoming a Patient Advocate is rooted in a trifecta of experience: professional, personal, and as a caretaker. Professionally, I spent years mastering the complex machinery of the healthcare system—navigating HMO, PPO, Medicare, Medicaid, and co-op plans, resolving personal injury liens, and helping families secure Short-Term Disability and FMLA. But the paperwork became personal when I faced my own battles.
After long-term PFAS exposure, I survived thyroid disease and thyroid cancer, while simultaneously managing severe, chronic musculoskeletal back issues. I learned firsthand what it feels like to sit in the patient's chair, exhausted by pain while trying to decipher medical bills. That perspective deepened even further when I took on the profound burden and privilege of acting as a caretaker for beloved family members navigating cancer, including those facing terminal diagnoses.
Having stood on all three sides of the medical crisis—as the professional advocate, the fighting patient, and the grieving caregiver—I understand the healthcare system inside and out. I chose this profession because no one should have to fight the system while they are fighting for their life.
