MY STORY
Hi friend, I am so happy you are here.
The first you thing you should know about me is that I talk too much, as least that is what my brother, Reed, always told me. After losing him to suicide, I realized if he was right, I needed to make it count for something. So now, I gladly welcome any opportunity to talk about Reed & the way he lived in addition to the things that are not so easy to talk about.
I am passionate about starting conversations and giving a voice to the topics we find difficult to talk about- mental health, suicide, grief & loss. I have had opportunities to speak with individuals &small groups about suicide and loss as well as speaking with media to continue the conversation in the open. I would love nothing more than to speak with new individuals, groups, teams & organizations. I hope to keep standing up for mental health & speaking up about the lives of those impacted.
Contact me today & let's talk!
