About
When I was 19, I lost my uncle to suicide. It motivated me to get my PhD in Neuroscience. Some years later, when I was doing research on depression at Stanford, my cousin called me. I didn’t get back in time and he also killed himself. That motivated me to stop looking at causes and start focusing on scalable solutions. I joined the founding team at Calm, as head of data/AI, and played a leadership role turning it into a $2B juggernaut. Calm struggled to get through to men, however. Everyone does. Unfortunately, men are 80% of suicides so if we ever want to solve the suicide crisis, we must find a way. That’s why I founded Mental, the first mental health app to leverage the latest science and build a solution from the ground up for men. We need change. We all need to get mental.
