I have lived with diabetes for 20 years. Much of my journey is summarized in my first book, Bright Spots & Landmines: The Diabetes Guide I Wish Someone Had Handed Me. It offers actionable diabetes tips related to food, mindset, exercise, and sleep. Access was always at the center of this project, which is why you can get Bright Spots & Landmines free as a PDF or as a free audiobook. On Amazon, the book is priced at-cost in paperback ($6) and available on Kindle and Audible. To date, over 250,000 copies of Bright Spots & Landmines have been sold/downloaded. Writing and sharing this book has been one of the most fulfilling projects of my life.

From 2010-2019, I worked at two mission-driven diabetes publications: Close Concerns and diaTribe.org. At diaTribe, I served as Senior Editor, regular contributor, and the author of Adam’s Corner. As the Head of Diabetes Technology & Connected Care at Close Concerns, I wrote extensively about continuous glucose monitoring (CGM), automated insulin delivery, mobile apps, wearables, and the latest in diabetes research and care. I also brought a diabetes perspective to numerous public venues, including FDA and NIH meetings, international scientific and industry conferences (ADA, AADE, ATTD), and local events for people with diabetes and healthcare providers.

I graduated from the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania in 2011, pursuing concentrations in marketing and health care management/policy. In fall 2021, I will complete a Master's Degree in Counseling Psychology from The Wright Institute.
