Health Technology
I build health technology that meets patients where they are — emotionally, physically, and digitally. As Co-Founder and CTO of Gryt Health, I bring a Chief Executive Operator’s approach to a survivor-led healthtech company.
What does Gryt Health do?
Gryt Health is a digital health platform that connects cancer patients around the world to community, clinical trials, and real-time support. I work closely with engineers, researchers, and survivors to design tools that serve people in the middle of the hardest moments of their lives.
What makes patient-centered technology different?
Most health technology is built around institutions. Patient-centered technology inverts that: it starts from the question, how can better systems reduce friction for people experiencing something consequential? That means designing for emotional state, not just user flow — and treating community as infrastructure, not a feature.
Where did this begin?
My path into health technology began in high school, when my father was diagnosed with testicular cancer. That led to co-founding Stupid Cancer, building one of the most recognized young adult cancer advocacy movements in the U.S., and eventually to Gryt Health and the Testicular Cancer Foundation. The technology changed; the mission didn’t.

On December 30th, I started working on what would become a complete rebuild of the Testicular Cancer Foundation's website. By January 16th, we had launched a production-ready platform with 10 core pages, full financial transparency, and an educational architecture designed to actually save lives.
