About me
On vacation in Aruba in March of 2024, my husband sustained a severe global traumatic brain injury. I was told it was most likely fatal. We were flown to Jackson Memorial Hospital in Miami, and once again, I was told this was most likely a fatal injury. With the most amazing care available and my advocacy, my husband has made a miraculous recovery. Almost six weeks later, we were flown home to Michigan, where he entered inpatient rehab for a week. I have worked in hospitals and healthcare settings, I have family in the medical field and close friends with brain injury experience, and I still felt I was facing this on my own. I want to help others who are in this space now. I know your pain and confusion. Don't wait for panic to set in and overwhelm to take over. Ask for help now and get on the right road to make your future something you are more in control of.
Formal Education
Oakland University Bachelor of General Studies with Minors in Biology and Psychology
Additional Skills
