I was invited to attend the 2023 Thyroid Cancer Survivor's Association (ThyCa) Annual conference in Denver, Colorado to present my new film, Expression of Illness, a short documentary that follows my treatment for thyroid cancer and promotes patient advocacy through film art. Following the film screening, myself and a group of panelists composed of other thyroid cancer survivors and doctors will participate in a talkback session with the audience.
