Today, in my 21st year living with T1D I am a living my absolute best. I am committed to not only my own best care but lessening the burden of diabetes for all that I encounter. Forming communities that allow us all to be unapologetically ourselves is what I do best. As an art and trauma therapist helping in healing is what I love and do best! I truly love us.

Not only am I a person living with T1D but I am an actionist (someone that makes things happen) in the diabetes space, whether that’s making sure no one goes without insulin or just being the voice to reason with. I spend many hours per week advocating for others via contacting their medical teams and also in lament terms breaking down the terminology and lab results etc.

Diabetes is my thing!
