HILARY HOWELL
President
Hilary is proud to be part of an organization that advocates for individuals navigating life with celiac disease—something she understands firsthand following her own recent diagnosis. She believes that having a strong, supportive community is essential during the uncertain period that often follows diagnosis.
Hilary is passionate about breaking down the stigma surrounding celiac disease and is committed to addressing the lack of education and awareness within the local community. As a member of the Board of Executives, she values the opportunity to connect with others who share similar experiences and is dedicated to helping the association grow, educate, and make a meaningful impact throughout Newfoundland and Labrador.
ALI WARREN
Vice President
Ali is in her last year of studies at Memorial University and is pursuing a Bachelor of Arts in Criminology. Throughout her time at MUN she has been a part of the Sea-Hawks University Swim Team and has just competed in her last Atlantic University Sport Swimming Championship. Her involvement in sports is what ultimately led to her official diagnosis of celiac back in 2021, ever since she has been committed to increasing visibility regarding the challenges associated with the disease. She is thrilled to have the opportunity to work with the board of executives to support those affected by celiac and other gluten-related intolerances. In her spare time she enjoys reading, pilates, and walking her dog, Maisy!
