During Lynne’s childhood years, she lost many of her family members to breast cancer including her mother, 2 aunts, and her grandmother. After knowing that, Lynne imagined that her risk factor was somewhat higher than the average.  But it wasn’t until she was diagnosed with the horrible disease herself, that she realized that her risk factor was not only somewhat higher … but, due to a BRCA genetic mutation, her risk was significantly higher than the average population. 

After 6 years of Lynne’s recovery, breast cancer touched her life again, this time, through her daughter, who was diagnosed at 27 years old. It was a horrible, gut-wrenching experience.

After painfully experiencing how four generations of breast cancer affected her family, Lynne became passionate at educating & empowering high risk communities. Early detection is critical for aggressive cancers.
