About the Founder

---

Welcome to SoCal Patient Advocacy, where patient advocacy meets expert healthcare management. I’m Kari, a dedicated Registered Nurse Case Manager with extensive experience in hospice care, business development, and patient advocacy. With over 15 years of experience in healthcare, I’ve had the privilege of guiding patients and their families through some of life’s most challenging moments, ensuring they receive the compassionate and personalized care they deserve.

I am a member of the American Nurses Association, IANDS, and have worked in tandem with LA Patient Advocates to provide Medical Aid in Dying to qualified terminal patients. I hold Bachelor's degrees in Nursing, Biological Sciences, and Communicative Disorders, an MBA in Healthcare Management, and am currently completing my Doctorate in Psychiatric Mental Health Nursing Practice. As a Licensed Public Health Nurse and a proud advocate for patient rights, I’m passionate about bridging the gap between clinical care and patient empowerment.

At SoCal Patient Advocacy, my mission is to provide unwavering support, expert guidance, and compassionate advocacy to ensure that every person receives the care they deserve at the end of life. Whether you’re navigating complex healthcare decisions or are seeking a trusted partner, I’m here to help every step of the way. 

If you or a loved one need a dedicated advocate who will go above and beyond to ensure your end-of-life journey is smooth and stress-free, I invite you to reach out. Let’s work together to ensure that your healthcare needs are met with the care, dignity, and respect you deserve!
