About us

 “I need to work and make money. My mental health, my talents and social network benefit because I work.  MSatWork.Life is for people like me who have MS and are looking for resources on how to stay professionally active. 

I know the challenges of finding work, getting back to work, disclosure and dealing with economic uncertainty. Over the years I’ve built my knowledge, learned from others and developed a strategy so I can stay successful.  Send me a message about your life and what work means to you. Put your experiences forward, other people need to know what works, or doesn’t, for you.”
