Ann Pietrangelo

I'm a freelance writer and health reporter with bylines on Healthline, WebMD, Verywell Health, Medical News Today, Self, and more.

Through my books, "No More Secs! Living, Laughing & Loving Despite Multiple Sclerosis" and "Catch That Look: Living, Laughing & Loving Despite Triple-Negative Breast Cancer," I share my experiences to help others feel a little bit less alone in their struggles. It's quite a high when readers tell me I've succeeded in that.

I'm currently working on a book of short stories, as well as my first novel.

With adult children scattered around the country, road trips are a fun fact of life, but I wouldn't mind settling into a cozy beach cottage where they can all visit at their leisure. I'm a bit of a dreamer.
