Kimberly Richardson, patient engagement expert, is our guest on this episode of the DiepCJourney podcast.

Kimberly was diagnosed with a rare form of ovarian cancer called Granulosa Cell Tumor, Stage 3A. This experience had great impact on her life and she is now a tireless advocate for change.

Kimberly applied for and received status as an NCCS Elevate Ambassador and launched an educational program for scientists and cancer survivors called, “Survivors Advising Scientists Educational Program” (SASEP).

She believes in asking critical questions to improve the patient experience in cancer care. Kimberly encourages those who think they have been called to be advocates to explore this work and do it until you are proud of what you do! It is an honor to interview her.
