What is your role?
I am the team lead, but more importantly, I get to take the creative ideas of our staff and implement them in ways that really support pediatric cancer families.

What’s your favorite part of your job?
I love the fact that we get to work with families one on one during a most challenging time.  Nothing feels better than when I hear from families first-hand that we have made a significant difference in their journey.

When you’re not working ,what can we find you doing?
I love being outdoors sitting in the gazebo or relaxing in the pool with my husband, family and friends.  I also love my lap dog, Harley who is my constant companion anywhere I go.

Favorite TV series?
Schitt’s Creek and Ted Lasso are a couple of binge-worthy watching.

If you were stranded on an island, what three foods could you survive on?
Pitch meatballs, Feta’s gyro and a really good crème brulee
