WORK HISTORY
Founder and CEO @Yes Health
San Francisco, CA, US
Hello we are Yes Health and our mission is to stop diabetes! With half the US population suffering from either pre-diabetes or diabetes and by having experienced these conditions first hand in my own family, we wanted to empower people everywhere to start living healthier and happier lives. Our team of doctors, health coaches and engineers has created a new all-mobile, fun and motivating diabetes prevention program based on proven science. After successfully testing Yes Health in 2014 with a group of participants diagnosed with pre-diabetes the program is now available to everyone. While Yes Health focuses on helping folks stop or reverse pre-diabetes it\'s also an effective program for anyone who wants to live a healthier life.
