It's a pretty surreal moment for me to be featured in People, sharing more about my journey with Hodgkin's Lymphoma Cancer and how it inspired me to start The Checkered Jaguar Boutique Marketing Agency.
Being able to reflect on the many ways cancer changed my life and drove my purpose as an entrepreneur is something I don't take for granted. Every day, I fight to drive awareness towards mental and physical health while continually normalizing difficult and vulnerable conversations.
A huge thank you to Wendy Grossman Kantor and Allison Rosenthal for helping bring this story to life.
I know that the 20-year-old version of me who had just been diagnosed with Hodgkin's Lymphoma Cancer, is so proud and can't believe this is happening!
Here's to continual grit, drive, and growth. I don't take this life for granted, and with every challenge I face, I will get back up. I will keep going. And I will always believe in the power of sharing your real, vulnerable story in hopes of bringing [people] together.

After my 2 PAO surgeries I was left with these beautiful battle scars that I’ve grown to love & appreciate. They tell my story & remind me of how strong our bodies are! Aside from those scars I have stretch marks, scars from my chemotherapy port, & so much more. Embracing all of your scars & “flaws” is the deepest act of self love. 💕

I am honored that The Mayo Clinic covered my story on beating Hodgkin’s Lymphoma Cancer as a young adult. Having cancer changed my perception on life & beating cancer propelled me towards never giving up on my dreams + career goals.
I do not take this life for granted & I am endlessly grateful for the opportunity I have to make an impact as a creative.

Did you know that I have a podcast + blog where I normalize difficult & vulnerable conversations? It's called The Checkered Jaguar. Today I released my second podcast episode in the second season of my show. It's a powerful one where I talk with Tina McGuff who is an Anorexia survivor and mental health advocate, just like me.

Hi Youtube friends!
Some of you have found my page though a video of mine that I shared in 2016 called, "My Survival Story Through Anorexia." Since releasing that video I have dealt with bipolar, & Hodgkin's Lymphoma cancer. Throughout these experiences I have become an advocate for mental health awareness as well as sharing my stories with others. My goal is to create a space where people who are going through what I went through can know that they are not alone.
With that being said, I have also been branching off from my health story videos, & vlogging different events in my life. I have also been sharing client work that I have created! SO, this is where you come in!!! I wanted to take a survey on what kinds of videos you would be most interested in seeing from this point, moving forward!
Thank you for taking the time to vote!
