Healthcare: “I am a nationally recognized maternal health advocate, speaker, and policy strategist who channels deeply personal experience into systemic change. After a life-threatening postpartumhemorrhage in 2010, a public miscarriage in 2011, and a PTSDdiagnosis, I confronted a profound lack of resources and support. This experience propelled me from a career as a professional makeup artist into a powerful force for health equity.”
(Ballotpedia (Campaign themes)) Education: “I began sharing my story publicly in 2012, connecting with thousands of women and families. My focus is on patient education, mental and physical health, and bridging the gap between lived experience and legislative action. I am a trusted liaison between patients, providers, and policymakers working to implement culturally congruent solutions.”
(Ballotpedia (Campaign themes)) Healthcare: “My policy expertise is rooted in hands-on legislative work. Appointed to the Massachusetts Special Commission on Postpartum Depression, I co-authored key legislation, including the Act to Reduce Inequities in Maternal Health, which established the state's Racial Inequities in Maternal Health Commission.”
