Full bio

I am the co-founder and CEO of Babyscripts: an innovative healthcare startup focused on reinventing the standard of prenatal care. I am deeply passionate about driving toward the intersection of the Human Experience & Data Science within healthcare. Also, really focused on how cutting edge tech products can infuse themselves into complex healthcare ecosystems. Prior to Babyscripts, I founded and exited another small startup in the research analytics space. I also have experience working at Deloitte where I was a senior tech consultant. When not working on Babyscripts, I focus on my other passion, The Quantified Self. It is a movement aimed to empower citizens to gain self-knowledge through data.
