My Living with Type 1 Diabetes & Why We Built GlucoSense

If you think I’m obsessed with diabetes tech, just meet Dex—my dog, named after Dexcom. Yes, I’m that guy. But when you’re passionate about something, whether it’s Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) or Formula 1 weekends, you weave it into every part of your life. For me, T1D has shaped everything—from daily routines to big-picture ideas. That’s exactly why my co-founder, Cole, and I created GlucoSense, a diabetes app designed to make managing T1D easier. Between juggling insulin doses, carb counting, and squeezing in walks (or sprints) with Dex, I wanted a tool that felt like a real partner.

What Makes GlucoSense Different?

Our GlucoScore is designed to give you a quick, at-a-glance blood sugar summary, like a daily report card for your glucose trends. But we go beyond basic tracking.

• AI-Powered Food Logging: No more vague “pizza” entries that treat a single slice the same way, whether it’s thin-crust or deep-dish. GlucoSense analyzes your meals with real precision, helping you make better decisions.

• Personalized Insights: Instead of just showing numbers, we help you understand trends and what’s impacting your blood sugar stability.

• Seamless CGM & Pump Integrations: We’re actively working on deeper continuous glucose monitor (CGM) and insulin pump connections, making your data more useful in real time.

Then there’s Cole, the design genius behind GlucoSense. He’s the calm, creative yin to my data-driven, slightly hyper yang. Together, we’re building more than just another diabetes management app—we’re building a T1D community. Every time you check your blood sugar or debate that second slice of cake, we want GlucoSense to feel like a supportive friend who truly gets it.

The Reality of Living with T1D

My journey with Type 1 Diabetes started at age 11 with my first hospital stay. Since then, I’ve faced everything from pump miscalculations to a full-blown seizure due to insulin errors. Moments like those made me realize that T1D needs dedicated solutions—not just repurposed tools designed for Type 2 diabetes. Too often, the diabetes tech industry focuses on broader solutions that don’t fully meet the needs of people with T1D. But we believe in making T1D-specific tools that truly work for the people using them.
