I’m a neuroscientist and entrepreneur, and previously led innovation at academic medical centers to accelerate the translation of science to impact.

Currently, I'm scaling a human-AI service using real-life conversations to improve how people feel and drive better clinical outcomes for chronic health conditions. We’ve managed to get a few health plans to pay, too.

I’m interested in tangibly improving people’s lives, especially those that have the least. I’m excited about advances in science & technology and their ability to open new possibilities for us. I’m also always aware that without deliberate attention we leave too many behind.

Being a mother has taught me more than any other experience. I also received a Ph.D. in Neuroscience from University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) and was a scholarship/work-study recipient at Bryn Mawr College.
