Strengthening the Complex, Collaborative Donation Process

As a former speech pathologist, I assisted patients with communication disorders. Through my friend’s son’s organ donation, I became interested in working in this field. Experiencing what it meant to this family to have something positive come out of their tragic loss was very powerful. And my sister is also a living kidney donor. I’ve seen how this process connects people who never may have met otherwise.

I am grateful for the opportunity to work with my hospital partners to fulfill the life-saving work of donation.
