Miss Teen Personality Western Canada 2022 & 2023

“When you hear hoof beats think horses, not zebras” is a common phrase taught to medical students meaning that it is more common for a patient to have a common condition than a rare complex disorder or disease leading to potential misdiagnosis. With my personal experience with the realities of living with childhood illness, I have used my experience to become an advocate for those with childhood illnesses. I continue to share my story about my challenges in the healthcare system and break barriers on how adolescent patients are treated. I look forward to continuing to teach staff in schools about the challenges of completing school well chronically ill. I also forward to speaking to medical professionals about not dismissing young patients based on their appearance and to continuing to work together with organisations in communities around me in support of patient care.
