When being diagnosed with a chronic illness at age 11, that certainly shaped Gigi into who she is today and how she shows up not only for others with invisible illnesses, but to speak to KIDS about it too. She wrote a book for kids on chronic illness, is a photographer, model (ahem, sports illustrated swim model) and has been featured in Bustle, Business Insider, Forbes & Vogue Business. This is one Gen Z that’s looking to change the way we show up, and how we view invisible illness.
