As Patient Engagement Director, Celeste leads the development of various patient-facing research communications, educational materials, and informational webinars.

She is a USAF Veteran (Public Health), ex Extension educator and classroom teacher. She is the Outreach Coordinator of the Global Ataxia Support Group that meets weekly online. Amy believes in furthering Ataxia &#8220;awareducation&#8221; not only to the newly diagnosed, but also to those who\u2019ve been living with it for a while. Oh, and she makes art and relies on autocorrect!<\/p><p><strong>Matthew Lafleur, <\/strong>has served as a FARA ambassador since 2017 and dedicates his time to show the world that the FA community is strong, capable, and resilient, as we journey toward a cure. Matt became an employee at Friedreich\u2019s Ataxia News at a time when he believed he couldn\u2019t do much as a victim of FA. Now he knows that victimhood is just a mindset and hopes to empower all those in the FA community. His favorite FARA event is rideATAXIA, his first taste of empowerment as an FA patient. Matt would tell someone newly diagnosed \u201cEven though you don\u2019t feel that you are strong enough to handle this diagnosis, you are. Years from now, you will see that you are stronger than you thought.&#8221;<\/p><p><strong>Troy Stewart, <\/strong>an Ottawa-based chef with Gluten Ataxia. He started in kitchens as my first at 14 yrs old, although his career as a chef didn\u2019t happen till later in life, it took off in Vancouver where he started his own catering and private chef business.

She is a regular at Zanies Comedy Club in Nashville, a familiar face at Austin\u2019s Comedy Mothership, and a touring headliner performing to sold-out rooms across the country.<\/p><p>At 18, Fiona was diagnosed with Friedreich ataxia (FA), a rare genetic neurological condition. Her journey from walking unaided to using mobility aids and eventually a wheelchair became part of her life, and later, part of her voice on stage. Rather than avoiding the topic, Fiona addresses it head-on with humor that disarms audiences and reshapes how disability is talked about in comedy.<\/p><p>Her stand-up isn\u2019t about inspiration. It\u2019s about honesty.<\/p><p>Fiona has toured with Nikki Glaser, appeared on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, and spoke at the Cannes Lions Festival of Creativity in France. Offstage, she\u2019s built an enormous following online, connecting with hundreds of thousands of fans who appreciate her unfiltered perspective and fearless delivery.<\/p><p>You can find Fiona rolling through a comedy club near you or, occasionally, a local hotdog stand.<\/p><p><strong>Tonight Show Set: <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/tJbY_u_j_l4?si=xtXI6wGAAiD7RAi1\">https:\/\/youtu.be\/tJbY_u_j_l4?si=xtXI6wGAAiD7RAi1<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b0dffc7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"b0dffc7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-68b19a0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-menu-anchor\" data-id=\"68b19a0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"menu-anchor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-menu-anchor\" id=\"bof\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1628ab7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"1628ab7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Birds of a Feather Sessions<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-529eb6b elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"529eb6b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-5608122 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"5608122\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-7e9930f\" data-id=\"7e9930f\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-66228a9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"66228a9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Birds of a Feather Sessions are small, informal gatherings where you can connect with others who share similar experiences.
