A Scientist, Veteran, Writer and Consultant.
Sharing a vision that takes life's challenges and paves new roads ahead.
This is me
I'm a veteran whose military career was spent as a pilot during wartime. Post-military, I earned my M.S. and Ph.D. while raising kids as a military spouse, moving across the country during my husband's deployments. Now, I'm a researcher in agriculture, working closely with farmers to keep our food grown in the US.
In 2022, our family was rocked with tragedy when a family skiing trip left my husband with severe injuries. I was told recovery was "unlikely"--I pushed back and chose to try. Our ENTIRE LIVES have been unlikely--this is our story of recovery, persistence, and hope.

Empowering an Unlikely Life
I share our experiences with brain injury, survival, and recovery, focusing on supporting the caregivers.
Getting lost in the medical system was the first time I felt I needed new skills to be able to protect myself and my family. Empowering families to seek out and achieve their best possible outcomes is my goal. Using a trauma-informed approach, I share both experiences and approaches to support growth and healing while learning to care for one's self as a caregiver.
