Wow, yes! She will blow you away with her knowledge and experience even as a young adult. She is wise beyond her years. Not only has she attend conferences to gain access to technology and share her journey with T1D in Uganda but she's traveled all around Africa doing the exact things. During the heart of the the pandemic, she did not stop! She only pushed more and developed more of herself.
