Bio

I am the wife to an extraordinary woman dealing with Stage 4 Metastatic Melanoma. Married in 2018, this is our second round of cancer treatment and looking for community and support to understand what she is experiencing and what to expect as we go on this journey. We are both animal lovers and volunteers in the animal welfare world and personally, I am lucky enough to work from home in the technology field which allows me to be a caregiver at the same time.
