“It’s an incredible honour to serve as a Breakthrough T1D Canada Ambassador.

I still remember the day I was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at age 12. I remember the fear, the uncertainty…That’s why it means so much to me to connect with others living with T1D—to show them that this diagnosis doesn’t have to hold you back from chasing your dreams.

It’s also deeply meaningful to support the ground-breaking research that’s making life with T1D easier every day, while we work toward a future free from this disease. Breakthrough T1D’s mission is personal to me—because it’s my mission too.”
