Martha Stewart of Dumpster Fires!"

She can take even the messiest, most chaotic situation and find clarity, purpose, and a plan of action.

Philadelphia’s first and only Cord Blood Donation Program.

Through partnerships with organizations like National Marrow Donor Program (NMDP) and Global Genes, she has helped impact countless lives, proving that hope can be more than just a word—it can be a plan of action.
