As the founder and CEO of A Fresh Chapter (AFC), I believe that no one should feel defined by the most difficult part of their story. AFC bridges the gap in cancer by care by focusing on the whole person -- not just their disease. Through our peer-facilitated virtual and in-person programs, we use a skills-based approach to address the emotional aftermath of cancer while empowering patients, survivors, and caregivers to move forward with resilience and purpose. Our programs cover a range of themes including navigating uncertainty, living in contradiction, and finding perspective, and are available free of charge to individuals impacted by all types and stages of cancer around the world. AFC instills a sense of purpose through volunteering and leadership training and creates a powerful ripple impact on families, communities, and the projects we serve around the globe.We are committed to health equity at home and around the world and are dedicated to working with local leaders and advocates to adapt our model to different cultural contexts. Speaking Engagements: AbbVie, Stanford's MedicineX conference, Keynote address for Lungevity's International Lung Cancer Survivor Conference and Young Adult Cancer Canada (YACC) National Conference.Media Features: ABC7 News In LA, The Philadelphia Inquirer, Huffington Post, Breakfast Television, CTV National, Toronto Sun.
