“When Ginger speaks on diabetes, you see a sparkle in her eyes. Sure, this woman lives and breathes diabetes, but she also thrives on empowering others. Her presence exudes leadership and strength. When speaking, her energy, intelligence, and immense empathy for support people with diabetes is overwhelmingly powerful.”
-Elaine, EPharma attendee
“Ginger is such an engaging and inspirational speaker. Not only was her talk informative, it was also practical. She gave her audience illustrations and how-to examples that made adding video to blogs seem doable. She addressed the many questions posed by workshop participants with both expertise and warmth.”
