Why I Joined The Mighty

I’ve been a contributor at The Mighty for a handful of years. I live with ulcerative colitis, and it was a safe space for me to tell my story the way I wanted to tell it. When an additional opportunity came up to ghostwrite and edit patient stories, I jumped on it! I’m grateful the team lets me work around another full-time job. The Mighty appeals to me because it shares honest, raw and relatable content from so many different types of people.
