Thanks, Susan. And thank you everyone for joining us on today's call. We're coming out of the first quarter with confidence about our ability to achieve our key operational and commercial goals we set for this year. We continue to expand the insulin pump market while capturing competitive share and growing the number of tandem customers purchasing a T-Slim once again. This is a meaningful achievement in a highly competitive environment and a testament to our talented employees and our number one rated T-Slim X2 with Control IQ technology. Internally, our teams continue to prepare for the launch of multiple new products in 2023. I'll talk more about each of these later in my comments. But overall, there's an enthusiasm at tandem as we approach being able to offer another wave of innovative products to the diabetes community. With these launches, we'll be building upon our reputation for offering high-quality products and services that reduce the burden for diabetes management. We set our high bar with our easy-to-use T-Slim X2 with control IQ technology. It continues to deliver outstanding clinical and quality of life improvements across a wide range of ages and demographics of people living with type 1 diabetes. This was recently highlighted in multiple publications, including the New England Journal of Medicine and Diabetes Technology and Therapeutics. The amount of positive data we are amassing for our market-leading AID capabilities is unrivaled. The New England Journal publication was the third time our T-SLIM was featured in the journal, this time focusing on the benefits of our control IQ technology for very young children. Diabetes Technology and Therapeutics recently published a meta-analysis of three randomized control IQ trials that demonstrated the immediate and sustained clinical benefit of our system. What this meta-analysis shows is that regardless of age, people with the highest baseline hemoglobin A1C and the lowest time and range experience the greatest benefit, which is important as we work to bring the benefits of our technology to more people living with diabetes. Our technology is not only making a positive clinical impact, but we are also making a positive impact on the environment. By choosing a T-Slim pump, our customers have kept more than 20 million batteries out of landfills since 2012. This is an important part of our longer-term product strategy, as we look forward to similar environmental benefits from our future product offerings. It's this kind of performance and impact, combined with the customer experience our teams provide, that sets Tandem apart and allows us to continue growing our installed base three years following the launch of ControlIQ. I'd now like to ask Brian and Lee to spend a few minutes talking about our performance in the first quarter, the broader commercial environment, and our expectations for the remainder of the year. Brian?
