During her senior year in college, this nurse in Ohio suffered from a blood clot in her brain, which was caused by her birth control, and that led to intensive medical treatment. She also went through an intense pregnancy scare with her second child. These experiences have shaped her views on reproductive health. She is now on the board of Ohio Physicians for Reproductive Rights and has been a part of the movement to put a constitutional amendment protecting abortion rights on the November 2023 Ohio ballot.
