Cynthia was diagnosed with secondary lymphedema in 1990; 11 years after being treated for breast- cancer at 31 years old. At the time of her diagnosis little was known or done for lymphedema patients. Cynthia’s lymphedema went untreated for 19 years. In 2009, a bout of cellulitis sent her life spiraling. Upon doing research and with the help of a friend, she found treatment. From that point forward Cynthia made the decision to become an advocate for patients with lymphedema. She appeared on Vegas Morning Blend bringing awareness to lymphedema. In 2011 she began co-hosting The Lymphedema Mavens Podcast with her good friend Coach Christine Wunderlin. She joined the Lymphedema Advocacy Group, and twice traveled to Capitol Hill advocating the Lymphedema Treatment Act. She served as Board Secretary/Social Media Manager for the Lymphedema Advocacy Group. While searching for more ways to be involved she found LE&RN. In LE&RN she found a platform that aligned with hers and is excited about expanding her lymphedema advocacy in the state of Nevada.

Chloe is the Clinical Director of RoM Edema Center, with locations in Las Vegas and Henderson. She earned her Master’s Degree in Occupational Therapy from Xavier University and is a proud member of the Jesuit honor society Alpha Sigma Nu. Chloe discovered her passion for lymphatic therapy while working in a rehabilitation center, where her commitment to patient care quickly evolved into a personal mission when both of her parents were diagnosed with lymphedema.

Today, Chloe treats lymphedema patients seven days a week, bringing both skill and compassion to her practice. Beyond the clinic, she extends her impact through international research and local fundraising efforts. A tireless advocate, Chloe stands by the motto: “Never Settle for Swelling.” She remains deeply committed to advancing care, raising awareness, and supporting the lymphedema community through her involvement with LE&RN’s advocacy and outreach initiatives.
