Our healthcare culture is shifting and, with this, comes opportunities and challenges. Tiffany combines her extensive experience as a patient with her training as a TeamSTEPPS Master Trainer, Certified Respecting Choices Advance Care Planning Instructor and APPEAL Certified Trainee to captivate her audiences with new and concrete strategies for navigating the healthcare maze. Her background as an actress only serves to ensure her presentations are as entertaining as they are innovative.

In 2007, Tiffany combined her efforts with that of Project Compassion to develop and create a curriculum for professionals, students, patients and families focused on patient advocacy skills, advance care planning conversation strategies and organ/eye/tissue donation education.  In 2010,Tiffany launched a Train the Trainer 1.5 day training which now enables others to share this unique and powerful information within their community.
