Jen Block: Behind the Scenes at Bigfoot


Listen Later

Stacey talks to Jen Block from Bigfoot Biomedical with a look at why they plan to be more than a pump company, offering help navigating healthcare and a subscription service. Jen is the VP of Medical and Clinical Affairs. She was diagnosed with type 1 her sophomore year in college, during a cross country road trip. Now a Nurse Practitioner and Certified Diabetes Educator, she shares her story and details about Bigfoot.

And Stacey shares a story about a recent wedding where she made one T1D friend and embarrassed herself trying to track down another.
