Andrea Rustad is a medical student at the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine in Chicago, Illinois. Andrea has atopic dermatitis, taking extra time and care for her skin since childhood.
Her condition blossomed into an interest in dermatology. She first met children with ichthyosis as a counselor at Camp Discovery, a camp for children with skin conditions, which motivated her to learn more about ichthyosis and get involved in ichthyosis research with Dr. Paller. Andrea wrote short stories as a child and has always loved reading and writing. Skin-vincible is her first book.
