Diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis at the beginning of 2020, this has been the most challenging year of her life. Upon diagnosis, Moyna started conducting tons of research, looking for support groups or general MS resources. She noticed a reoccurring theme within the MS community. She did not see many people who looked like her or had similar backgrounds. It motivated Moyna to create her Instagram. Sharing her journey and stories in hopes of inspiring others. The positive reception from her Instagram lead her to create a website and begin blogging. MS has been an inspiration to cherish each day. Moyna can be reached by Instagram @lifewithmoyna.

Dealing with any lifelong disease diagnosis is hard, but Lina got the bad news, right as COVID-19 started. She experienced symptoms of M.S. as early as her childhood, which she was recently told by her specialist, but nothing could have prepared her for the isolation and having to experience new medications and infusions on her own. She has gotten better since the beginning of this year with treatment and a great attitude, and she continues to advocate for herself and seek help, and new friendships, through social media. Listen to her story and her awesome advice! Connect with her on instagram @TheLightofLina and check out her project  @TheLightIChose

With an eye for fashion and a heart to help others, she is creating awareness to reduce the fashion stigma and emphasize the need for a clothing line for those with chronic disease.
