When Trevis Gleason, a chef at the top of his culinary career, was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, he lost everything, including his job and his marriage. Surveying the ruins of his former life, he decided to fulfill a long-postponed dream. He'd travel from Seattle to west Kerry, Ireland for the winter. There he found that his dreams weren't lost, just waiting to be rediscovered

Chef Trevis L. Gleason has been an award-winning culinarian, consultant, and instructor. A decorated U.S. Coast Guard veteran and former U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) Goodwill Ambassador to Ukraine, Chef Trevis has been acknowledged with several awards for his Life With MS Blog. In 2012 he was ranked as the "#1 Online Influence" on the topic of multiple sclerosis and also named the Jimmie Heuga "MS Can Do Person of the Year." Retired from a distinguished culinary career, Gleason has taken on the challenges of living with secondary-progressive multiple sclerosis since his diagnosis in 2001. He is an ambassador for the National MS Society, an active volunteer for Multiple Sclerosis Ireland and the MS Society of the UK, and speaks to groups, both large and small, about living life fully with or without a chronic illness. Gleason divides his time between Seattle, Washington and County Kerry, Ireland with his wife, Caryn, and their two Irish Soft-Coated Wheaten Terriers, Sadie and Maggie.
