Meet the Team
Our mission-driven team is united by a shared sense of purpose and urgency: to bring a life-changing treatment to CMT1A patients as quickly as possible.

Dedication. ​
-
My 4 yr old son has CMT1A. He had an earlier onset and has a more severe presentation.

CMT1A is progressive, and gets worse during puberty.

I have a sense of urgency and will not stop until a safe treatment is available for my son.
​
Track-record.

I learn quickly. I'm a Mechanical Engineer (Johns Hopkins) and an MBA (Imperial College London).
-
I was the first go-to-market leader at Notion ($10B) & Typeform ($1B). I advise Sequoia Capital.

I'm a 2x Founder. Teleconnect (acquired), Apple Sustainability (ran profitably for 5 yrs).
​
Perspective.

I'm energized by solving hard problems.

I'm working backwards from the unmet need.
