Psychotherapist | Entrepreneur | Psychedelic Therapy Educator | Bridging Business & Human Development
I've always believed the best leaders build bridges: between purpose and profit, vision and execution, people and potential. My journey began when I co-founded Runa in college. We built something special: a company that connected American consumers with Amazonian communities while creating thousands of sustainable livelihoods. When Vita Coco acquired us in 2018, I witnessed how purpose-driven companies can deliver both meaningful impact and financial returns. At Fluence, I help build the foundation for an emerging field, developing programs that have trained thousands of healthcare professionals in psychedelic therapy. We're balancing innovation with ethics, scaling rapidly while maintaining quality, and transforming how we approach mental health. My background as a psychotherapist gives me a unique perspective on leadership; I understand how to foster environments where people thrive and organizations evolve authentically. I'm passionate about creating systems that generate both human flourishing and sustainable growth. Whether building brands, guiding teams, or advancing industries, I bring both strategic vision and human understanding to complex challenges. Let's connect about psychedelic therapy, sustainable entrepreneurship, or the future of human-centered leadership.
