Age: 7
Age at T1D diagnosis: 3

Nadia is an enthusiastic, active seven-year-old who doesn’t let anything stand in her way, especially not T1D! She loves attending diabetes camp in the summer, going to church, playing soccer on two different teams and is looking forward to starting basketball as well. Nadia and her family have been very involved with JDRF, participating in both JDRF One Walk and Team JDRF events. Nadia is excited to bring her spunk and passion for T1D advocacy to Washington, D.C. this summer.
