Renza Scibilia has lived with Type 1 diabetes since 1998. She is a diabetes patient advocate and works for a diabetes organization where she manages the community and peer support programs. Renza is a regular speaker at diabetes conferences both in Australia and internationally. She also writes one of Australia’s most wide-read patient blogs, Diabetogenic.
