Founder

I'm an MD/PhD student turned founder of Vitalize, where we work with healthcare employers to improve the mental health + productivity of their staff. Prior to Vitalize, I co-founded two behavioral health nonprofits and co-led digital health strategy initiatives for the US Surgeon General and IBM. Originally got interested in healthcare through informatics research, where my most recent work was funded by the Gates Foundation. Love chatting about all things hiking and coffee!
