In Honor of Tiffany Christensen

Tiffany was the ultimate champion for the lived experience. She worked relentlessly to ensure the voices of all who healthcare serves are heard, respected and acted on. She was unwavering in her commitment to elevating conversations on equity. She was an unparalleled voice for all healthcare could do to be just a little better each day. And in doing all this, she made us all a little better each day too.

Tiffany was also a coach and mentor, an innovator, a driver, and she was most importantly a dearly loved friend. A friend we know so many of us will miss deeply.

Now it will be up to us to ensure her voice is sustained. That through our actions as a global community and through the experience movement, we work to reflect and honor her brilliance, passion and grace. While her star may have gone out, her light and its warmth, her call for us to move forward with purpose, never will.

We have been lucky to travel a part of life’s journey with Tiffany. Her memory sustains us. It also reminds us that together we can continue to do good things. We are grateful for all that each of you do every day to transform the human experience. There is still much work left to do.
