After 5 years as a health and benefits consultant, even I struggled to find access to high quality mental health services when I needed them most. This kick started my career shift into the consultant relations space, and while I will always be a mental health advocate, I have taken on a new challenge in the surgical, cancer, and infusion space with Lantern. After losing my stepsister to aggressive brain cancer several years ago, I look forward to making Shannon proud by helping families find access and guidance to the best care when they need it most. In my current role, I grow and foster our relationship with benefits consultants across the country.I also serve on the Carolinas ISCEBS Chapter Board of Directors to connect and serve benefits professionals of all shapes and sizes throughout South Carolina and North Carolina. If you have any questions about the ISCEBS organization, CEBS exams, or general benefits education and event opportunities, please reach out to me directly.In my free time, you will find me meal-prepping whole, natural foods and at the CrossFit gym. I love to clear my head on hikes in the Blue Ridge Mountains with my 8yr old rescue pup Enzo and spend the summers on the lakes in the area. I balance all of this with my frequent concert nights and sporting events (Go Gamecocks!).
