Our Commitment:
We believe every person affected by AATD deserves access to high-quality, accurate, accessible education. No one should navigate this journey uninformed or alone.
Mark's Vision:
"When I was diagnosed, information was scattered and hard to find. I had to piece together my understanding from multiple sources, often conflicting. I want everyone who comes after me to have a clear, comprehensive, trusted source of education—so they can make informed decisions, take control of their health, and live their best lives with AATD. Education is empowerment."
