Snow is a vibrant, witty, wise beyond her years, passionate 6-year-old who loves to dance, sing, draw, and play with makeup. She’s also a big fan of swimming and has a special love for fashion!

Snow’s family was incredibly proud when Team Snow Angels raised $5,000 during their first year walking in the Breakthrough T1D Walk in NYC. Snow had the best time participating, feeling supported and loved by the incredible group of people who walked alongside her.

Snow is full of hope and faith for the future. She always looks forward to a cure and never imagines a future with type 1 diabetes. When she grows up, she dreams of becoming a teacher so she can help children, just like she’s helped others with her kind and compassionate spirit.

On device-changing days, one of Snow’s favorite things to do is create videos for her pretend social media pages, which helps her stay positive and distracted when dealing with the challenges and the pains of T1D. Her sticker-motivated protective adhesives make managing her diabetes feel a little more colorful and exciting.
