Hi [Name], I'm Katherine, founder of Beacon Cancer Navigation (beaconcancernavigation.com), a Colorado-based independent cancer patient advocacy practice serving the Denver metro area and beyond. I work alongside oncology teams — not as a clinical provider, but as a navigator who helps patients and families manage the non-medical side of cancer: coordinating care logistics, sourcing financial assistance, preparing for treatment, and supporting caregivers. I also serve Spanish-speaking families. I'd love to explore whether Beacon could be listed in your community resource directory or included in patient handouts. Many of your patients may benefit from having a dedicated navigator in their corner. I'd be happy to connect by phone or email to share more. Thank you for considering this.
