About Hannah W. B.

We bring a unique combination of operational excellence, clinical judgment, and human-centered thinking that makes us exceptional entrepreneurs, operators, and innovators.I build systems and programs that reflect that philosophy—bridging clinical insight with strategic and operational execution to drive scalable impact. I’m a Registered Nurse with more than a decade of clinical experience who transitioned into the startup and healthtech ecosystem. I thrive in fast-paced, ambiguous environments where clarity, collaboration, and decisive action matter.At Akido, I design and operationalize new care models—most recently for underserved populations, including NYC rideshare drivers. Much of my work focuses on taking ideas from →, transforming early concepts into structured, measurable programs. I excel at turning ambiguity into organized workstreams and building the foundations that allow teams and partnerships to scale with confidence. I bring a rare combination of clinical expertise and operational leadership, with a track record of designing, improving, and scaling healthcare initiatives that support both providers and the patients they serve.
