How I Can Help
Patient advocacy for individuals, families, and caregivers navigating complex chronic illness, rare disease, or undiagnosed conditions.
Most clients I work with are managing multi-specialty care, unresolved diagnoses, or insurance barriers such as denials and access issues.
• Care Coordination: Organizing care across providers, identifying gaps, and aligning next steps in complex or fragmented care plans
• Insurance Navigation & Appeals: Interpreting benefits, organizing claims and denials, and preparing structured appeals and grievances
• Medical Record Review & Organization: Reviewing records, building clear timelines, and identifying missing or incomplete documentation
• Communication Support: Drafting messages, call scripts, and documentation for providers and insurance companies
• Specialist Identification & Research: Identifying appropriate specialists and centers of excellence; compiling relevant condition and treatment information
• Financial & Resource Support: Reviewing medical bills, identifying cost issues, and locating financial assistance programs
• Appointment Preparation: Preparing questions, priorities, and structured talking points to improve clarity and outcomes during visits

My Survivor Support Advocacy Qualifications
I am a survivor of Spondylitis, Gastroparesis, Primary Immune Deficiency (PID), Chronic Migraine, Narcolepsy, Long COVID, ME/CFS, MCAS, Connective Tissue Disease, Rare Disease
I became disabled at 12 and spent years misdiagnosed, later learning I was living with multiple chronic and rare conditions. That journey taught me how isolating and overwhelming the healthcare system can be, and why no one should face it alone.
Today, I am a Board Certified Patient Advocate who combines lived experience with professional expertise to guide patients through insurance, medical, and systemic barriers. My role is to stand beside survivors so they feel heard, supported, and empowered to get the care they deserve.

Why I Became A Professional Health Care Advocate
My work in patient advocacy is grounded in both lived experience and professional training.
I have navigated the healthcare system as a patient with multiple chronic and rare conditions, including complex care coordination, insurance denials, and prolonged diagnostic uncertainty. This experience gave me direct insight into how healthcare and insurance systems function.
Over time, I became a resource for others facing similar challenges; helping them organize care, understand their coverage, and move forward when they felt stuck in the system.
I formalized that work by becoming a Board Certified Patient Advocate (BCPA) and building an independent practice focused on complex cases.
Today, I apply both lived experience and systems-level understanding to help clients navigate healthcare with clearer strategy, stronger documentation, and more effective communication.
