How I Can Help
As your advocate, we will provide resourceful navigation through the complexities of healthcare and long-term support systems, coordinating all aspects of the care journey to ensure patients and families access the full range of benefits available to them. My services include managing Medicare, Medicaid, waiver eligibility, facilitating seamless transitions between care settings, and assisting with the logistical challenge of balancing multiple medical appointments and provider schedules. By utilizing person-centered planning tools and identifying underutilized community resources, as your advocate, my goal is to bridge the gap between medical necessity and practical support. I will alleviate the administrative burden on loved ones by securing essential services and advocating for the patient's rights and preferences at every stage by keeping open lines of communication.

Why I Became A Professional Health Care Advocate
My journey in advocacy began in high school when I helped my non-English-speaking grandparents navigate the healthcare system. Being their voice taught me the importance of listening, asking questions, and ensuring that people feel heard and understood. That experience shaped my commitment to standing beside others during difficult times.
For more than 25 years, I have worked with individuals and families facing complex healthcare, developmental, behavioral, and personal challenges. I hold a Bachelor of Science and a Master of Business Administration in Healthcare Administration. My experience includes care coordination, case management, and long-term care Medicaid waiver assessments for people with developmental and physical disabilities. I also spent several years providing Targeted Case Management services for children with significant mental health, behavioral, and emotional needs, connecting their families with treatment programs, educational support, and community resources.
My work has brought me alongside people at many stages of life. As a parent, I challenged school policies that did not adequately address the bullying my daughter experienced. Professionally, I served as a Senior Investigator for a disability rights organization and as a Case Guardian with a professional guardianship firm supporting older adults. These responsibilities gave me a deeper understanding of the barriers individuals encounter in healthcare, education, social services, and government systems—and the value of patient, persistent advocacy.
I have also worked with survivors of domestic violence, offering guidance and support during difficult times. My own personal challenges have given me an understanding of how hard it can be to seek help and move forward through uncertainty. These experiences have deepened my compassion and respect for those who feel overwhelmed, unheard, or unsure where to turn.
Today, my services focus on advocacy, care coordination, education, and practical support. I help individuals and families explore their options, communicate with providers, navigate complex systems, and connect with appropriate resources. My role complements, rather than replaces, the expertise of qualified healthcare and legal professionals, who should be consulted on medical care, diagnosis, treatment, and legal matters.
At the heart of my work is a simple purpose: to offer a listening ear, clear guidance, and a trusted partnership so that those I serve can make informed decisions and move forward with greater confidence.
“Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves; ensure justice for those being crushed.”
—Proverbs 31:8
