Photographer passionate to raise awareness about head and neck cancer and the effects of treatment
I am a freelance photographer living and working in the Nashville, TN area. I am also a seven year Stage 4 tonsil cancer survivor. The eradication treatment for my cancer did a great job killing the cancer. It also closed down my breathing and swallowing "tubes" and has significantly impacted my ability to breathe, speak and swallow. I am not alone and am committed to raise awareness and as a result research funding for prevention, earlier diagnosis and kinder yet still effective eradication.
