    My Child and I were filmed for a commercial and participated in a press conferences for HEALTHY TOGETHER, an iniciative by the Consumer Health Coalition, Alliance For Children, Mayor Bill Peduto, Allegheny County Health Department and The League of Cities to get the 2000+ uninsured children in Pittsburgh medical coverage!

    I have spoken at several press conferences, events and have been interviewed for several media outlets on the topic of healthcare for children and the Healthy Together initiative to get all children in Pittsburgh coverage. When I am not at an event I continue to advocate for this cause on social media and in the community.
