At 7 years old, Emily became the first child in the world to receive CAR T-cell therapy. After three relapses and being sent to hospice, Emily got a second chance at life with this treatment. Help protect access to life-saving treatments: https://t.co/mQhth9Rrg6

A painful day at the beach led to Michael’s surprise multiple myeloma diagnosis. Today, he’s in remission thanks to a stem cell transplant. Now, he’s a patient advocate fighting for research funding. Use your voice and #Fight4Hematology: https://t.co/iAaCfs72C4

A powerful reminder from @MikkaelSekeres that the most common early cancer symptoms often look ordinary. A lingering cough, a strange mole, a small lump, unexplained changes. 👉🚩 If something feels “off” and doesn’t go away, don’t ignore it. Early attention saves lives!
Worried that a swollen lymph node or weight loss may indicate that you have cancer? My take @washingtonpost on common cancer symptoms you should know about. https://t.co/RajsZOcr1J

And for the patience and understanding from my husband to give me the confidence and pep talks I’ve needed to get this far.

My roots are in PR, but our industry has evolved and so has my career, specializing in integrated health communications, blending PR/Marketing/Advertising. I’m so grateful for the support of my employer that has allowed me to pursue this degree.

This week kicks off my last course of my master’s program from @BU_Tweets & coincides with my first true marketing-focused conference, #INBOUND25. I knew having a demanding job and working through a graduate degree would be challenging, but I’ve never shied away from a challenge!

Squeezed as much as possible into a few short days in San Francisco! So much to see and do. A wonderful city with pockets of culture at every turn.

Already inspired and I’m one session into #INBOUND25. The game is changing at a rapid pace and we all have to deal with AEO (AI Engine Optimization) and not just SEO - you have to make sure you are part of the answer.

When I left government service, I knew I had to keep fighting for what matters: science, health, and patients. Honored to stand with @ASH_hematology that funds breakthroughs when lives are on the line. Get involved in the #Fight4Hematology 🩸

Science & curing diseases should not be a political issue. I’m proud to work @ASH_hematology to support science & the people working to find the next breakthrough for patients as part of the #Fight4Hematology. #publichealth #fundNIH #researchsaveslives
This year the ASH Bridge Grant is funding 25 scientists with $3.75M, 5X more than last year, to keep hematology research moving forward. Congratulations to the recipients! 🎉 https://t.co/Ld9o1jedbK

Life-saving research is under threat in Washington, but you 🫵 can help protect it. Congress is in recess right now. That means it's the perfect time to speak up. Take a minute to tell your representatives: protect NIH funding. https://t.co/Emhf2cgR10

Why #Fight4Hematology? Because hematology research helped to give Rohan a second chance. Groundbreaking therapies and a double cord blood transplant brought him back from relapse. Science saves lives—let's keep investing in it. 🔗 https://t.co/yf0A7Qrqso
