Since he publicly announced his diagnosis, he has become widely recognized and applauded for speaking out passionately to help other young people with diabetes through efforts to educate, support and inspire. Nick uses Bayer\u2019s CONTOUR<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>\u00a0USB meter and knows how important good diabetes management is.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cThrough my work with Bayer, I am continually moved by the feedback I get from people who tell me that I\u2019ve inspired them because of my diabetes,\u201d said Nick. \u201cIn turn, I am just as motivated by their diabetes stories. It\u2019s important to me to give back to others and support the diabetic community with opportunities to learn about diabetes and how to live a full life in spite of it. Through this Simple Inspirations contest, Bayer and I invite people already living with diabetes to use creative expression to help motivate newly diagnosed persons to manage their diabetes properly.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Nick is a paid spokesperson for Bayer Diabetes Care.
