“Karyn has developed patient stories that have helped to raise awareness about the healthy lifestyles of people with Down syndrome. These stories also allowed me to share the knowledge the team here has gained from our patients over the past 25 years. These stories have resulted in relevant publicity and online content that have shown our patients living longer and becoming self-advocates in their health care.”
