Amy Watkin

Amy Watkin joined the Northern Plains Chapter of HDSA as its president in January 2023 and has been working diligently to grow the chapter ever since. Fargo, North Dakota, is fortunate to have a Center of Excellence, and Amy, along with the other Northern Plains Chapter board members, has partnered with them to host an education day and an upcoming walk. Amy also hopes to establish a support group in the area in the near future.

There are many people in North Dakota who care deeply about HD, so the focus is on harnessing the incredible gifts those individuals bring. Amy’s family is affected by HD, and she values HDSA as a meaningful way to channel her energy and support others who are also facing the disease. In her free time, Amy enjoys spending time with family and friends, reading, sewing, and relaxing at the lake.
