Federico graduated from the College with a Doctor of Pharmacy degree, and developed a passion for raising awareness and delivering education related to physical fitness and nutrition. After growing up with a sibling with Type 1 Diabetes, Chris learned firsthand how access to healthcare resources can have a positive impact on an individual’s physical health and overall wellness.
