Laura Young – Lansdale, PA

I was born in Venezuela. I came to the United States when I was 10 years old for medical treatments for my family. One month after I graduated from Princeton University, I was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. I continued my education at Temple University, where I received an MBA. After working for two years, I got married to the love of my life, Tim. We have raised three beautiful children, William, Jake, and Julia.

Despite some difficulties, I coasted during my career of multiple sclerosis. I have followed different disease-modifying therapies. I have been fortunate to remain functional. During the last 10 years, I have developed the physical difficulty of strong spasms. I can no longer write or draw very clearly. However, art has always been a big part of my life. I continue to find a way to produce some art. It keeps me happy.
