A breast cancer survivor, carrier of the BRCA1 gene mutation, and ovarian cancer "pre-vivor," I write, speak about, and lead discussions and workshops on, navigating such a journey - practically, spiritually, and emotionally.
Below are my offerings. For more information or to book a workshop or speaking engagement,
please contact me.
Virtual Monthly Writing Workshop:
3rd Wednesday of every month, 6:30-8pm
Cancer Program at USC Norris, AYA (Adolescent and Young Adult)
In this workshop, participants bring life to the character of their “pain.” Utilizing prompts, they explore what this “pain” looks and sounds like, what it has to say to them, and what they’d like to say to it. We use this as a starting point to then allow whatever healing and creativity is waiting to flow out!
