Entrepreneur founded & led, with the goal of growing a purpose-driven business
My goal is to partner with innovators, clinicians, technologists, and businesses to enhance health and wellness — to build alongside a dedicated team.
By teaming up with existing businesses, my vision is to enhance growth and improve outcomes. Through this collaboration, I want to take a business through its next chapter of growth.
Why Me?
A commitment to improving outcomes and advancing human health.
I studied pre-med and health policy at NYU, consulted for the NYC Health and Hospital Systems, and worked in retail healthcare at Join(RED) and Equinox. Throughout, my career has consistently intersected with policy, health and wellness, and meeting consumer expectations.
Growing up with an occupational therapist mother and a healthcare executive father, I spent my formative years alongside my parents in clinical settings. This gave me an understanding of the impact that someone with a commitment to patient care can have, but also a deep appreciation for the complexities of navigating our healthcare system.
An understanding that building a a successful company and culture is hard.
I’ve never been one to back down from a chance to challenge the status quo and my goal is to be operating in the trenches, not managing passive investments.
Like when I helped revamp online marketplaces with Jet.com, and Walmart noticed. At Equinox, I launched a fresh idea to blend digital and physical experiences, resulting in a tech-enabled running studio. Most recently, I've been changing things up in the pet food scene, bringing chef Bobby Flay's vision to life.
A bias for operating and innovating
My career has been non-linear, but one thread has been consistent over the last decade; a genuine passion for entrepreneurship — for building products, companies, and teams to solve difficult problems.
Small but mighty.
