hi there! i'm a young ovarian cancer survivor and actorvist/writer and founder of Bald Is Beautiful (www.baldisbeautiful.org -- come visit anytime! i'm open 24/7/365!). i am passionate about encouraging women to flip the script on the cancer experience, and know that with or without hair (or breasts or reproductive organs), their beauty and wholeness remain undiminished by the effects of having cancer. through bald is beautiful, i want to empower women to define their beauty & femininity on their own terms, and be proactively healthy in mind, body, and spirit. i am also dedicated to raising awareness about ovarian cancer and the vital importance of research towards developing some form of early detection (which does not exist for us -- and which is why ovarian cancer has the highest mortality rate of ALL women's cancers! betcha didn't know that!). thank you for reading and watching!

A short, hairy tale about how I lost my hair and found myself. The message: we always have the power to choose how we experience everything life brings, the good and the bad, the joyful and the painful. We can turn our fear into a positive, empowering choice to reinvent ourselves. And there can by Joy and Fun where and when you least expect it!
