Cherie is a nineteen-year breast cancer survivor and to turn a bad thing into a good thing for others she is the Founder and CEO of an Austin, Texas-based company that has won many Innovative Awards and has been nationally and internationally recognized. The name of her company is named Healincomfort, appropriately named because from personal experience it was the last thing that occurred. Healincomfort is dedicated to helping women heal in comfort and dignity after mastectomy surgery in their battle against breast cancer with her award winning, patented and innovative post-operative garment. Cherie chose to bootstrap her business as a social experiment with one thousand dollars to learn if people still believed in a good product would they share it with others and whether it was possible to grow a business organically and by word of mouth.

Healincomfort was first created to help 100 local Austin, Texas patients, which has turned into helping over thirty-eight thousand patients throughout the USA.
