Freddi Wilkinson

Russell/Engleman Rheumatology Research Center Board of Directors

Freddi Wilkinson has spent her career helping Fortune 500 companies solve business challenges and working with non-profits to raise funds for humanitarian causes. Having lived with rheumatoid arthritis for 48 years, Freddi knew upon retiring that she wanted to help others live active and fulfilling lives despite RA. Now an R/ERRC Board member, she feels aligned with its mission to support scientific investigation into arthritis and autoimmune diseases, and she is inspired by UCSF’s patient-centered approach to care.
