Colette brings the voice of patients to the heart of the Hopewell Foundation's mission. As co-founder of the UARS Initiative, a patient advocacy coalition, she has worked tirelessly to ensure that the lived experience of patients informs the way new treatments are developed, communicated, and delivered.
Her perspective is shaped by years of listening to patients navigating complex reconstructive journeys, and by her own commitment to making sure no one walks that path alone. She believes that meaningful progress in regenerative medicine must be measured not only in scientific milestones, but in the dignity, hope, and quality of life it restores to the people it serves.
On the Advisory Board, Colette helps the foundation stay grounded in what matters most: the patients we exist to serve.
