I am flattered and honored to receive the Ricardo Azziz PCOS Challenge Advocacy Leadership Award!

PCOS Challenge created this award to recognize an individual who has demonstrated extraordinary dedication to advocacy and public policy efforts that expand access to resources and support for women and girls with polycystic ovary syndrome.

The award after Dr. Ricardo Azziz to honor his work and contributions in the field of PCOS. Dr. Ricardo Azziz is an international authority on polycystic ovary syndrome and over the past 25 years has developed an internationally recognized research program, which has been continuously funded by the NIH, generated 500+ peer-reviewed articles, book chapters and reviews; 300+ abstracts and presentations at national meetings; and nine texts. Dr. Azziz has made major contributions to the field through his research and clinical work as well as his support and advocacy for PCOS patients.

As a woman with PCOS, I am passionate about educating others about this under diagnosed and under-recognized condition. Through my work as a registered dietitian nutritionist at the PCOS Nutrition Center, I enjoy empowering women to make the necessary lifestyle changes to optimize their health and fertility.
