Arielle is the Director of Marketing Operations at Breakthrough T1D, formerly known as JDRF. Diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes at the age of four, she has lived with the condition for 33 years, making the organization’s mission deeply personal. She is also the proud mom of a vibrant 5-year-old son with autism.

In her role, Arielle oversees vendor management, creative project management, brand asset management through a digital asset management system, and print production. Her decade-long career at Breakthrough T1D has been both professional and transformative - introducing her to life-changing tools like continuous glucose monitors through the support of her colleagues.

Balancing multiple chronic conditions while raising a neurodivergent child has deepened Arielle’s commitment to accessibility, advocacy, and innovation. She believes people with Type 1 Diabetes are among the most resilient and adaptive individuals, and she is honored to help tell their stories and advance solutions that improve lives.
