About

I’m passionate about pushing forward the next wave of Parkinson’s treatment worldwide.

I believe that the right programs & tools can limit the effects of Parkinson’s and put the power back into the hands of those impacted by this disorder. I’m building an organization that serves this community worldwide.

My talent for moving projects forward, “nerd-like” obsession for all things Parkinson’s and extensive international reach make me uniquely suited to drive new Parkinson’s innovation.

I’m a connector with a savant-like recall of Parkinson’s research worldwide. This, along with my extensive network, allows me to connect the right people who can address problems and explore solutions.

In building my business, I endeavor to build trust by standing for ideals bigger than myself and caring for all stakeholders I serve.

While developing my programs and tools, I remain steadfastly focused on “patient-centered design.” I love this work and believe that we are building products in the world to in improve the quality of life for people living with Parkinson’s and related disorders.

I’m a determined, resourceful and imaginative leader who believes in building a company “the right way”

● I’m dogged and determined to move the agenda forward, regardless of hours or money required ● I’m flexible and resourceful and recognize that the path towards creating something meaningful won’t always be a linear one ● I’m imaginative in problem solving and new idea generation ● I’m friendly and outgoing and have a knack for bringing disparate people together to solve problems

My unique combination of domain expertise, entrepreneurial creativity and international network will continue to help me drive successful outcomes for the Parkinson’s community worldwide.

Whether you are someone living with Parkinson’s, an interested investor or a representative from the non-profit community, I would love to hear from you. Please reach out to discuss collaboration opportunities!
