Juliana Tustin
Hello and welcome to iamvisABLE! My name is Juliana Tustin, most people call me Jewlz! I recently graduated with a Masters degree and completed the qualifications to become a Certified Child Life Specialist (CCLS), a professional trained to help children and families cope with the stress and uncertainty of acute and chronic illness, injury, trauma, disability, loss and bereavement. My passions range from storytelling and writing to advocacy and empowerment, each purposefully woven into the online platform that is iamvisABLE.
At the age of sixteen, I was diagnosed with a chronic illness. Due to personal health experiences, I began to identify a lack of representation and need for community among individuals living with an invisible, chronic illness.
I wanted to change that.
