After almost being paralyzed by a car accident at 15 followed by a diagnosis of Stage IV Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma at the age of 34, Tiffany Andersen has learned more than most about the power of hope. And in her darkest hours fighting for survival she found her calling as an entrepreneur. Now 46, Andersen is the CEO and Founder of two organic skincare startups, Gavée Gold and Salts Alive.
