“I’ve always known how beneficial the breast cancer community is and love seeing people come together to share words of empowerment and advice. But I’ve also seen how misinformation can be damaging, so I created The Breast Advice, a space where patient stories are contextualized by medical expertise and the most up-to-date information, giving you the breast of both worlds.”
