Healthcare can be intimidating—most patients are scared or anxious when dealing with it. This week at LA Tech Week, I had some awesome conversations at Espree Devora 🎙️'s Female Founders Showcase with Live Bash, talking to both patients and doctors about their healthcare experiences. At ExactRx, we’re focused on connecting fragmented medical device data and patient records to deliver personalized care that makes healthcare smarter and more accessible. Doctors we spoke to were excited about how we can make their work easier, freeing them up to focus on what really matters: their patients. Whether it is reducing stress for patients or giving doctors more time to provide great care, we’re using those insights to build smarter, more connected solutions. Healthcare should be human, not scary. #LATechWeek Ellard Matthew Li Gina Cocos, PharmD Joanna De Jesus Flores Jan Krumsiek Liza Gurtin Erin Nance, MD Patricia Bradley Sandy Babey Rory Garton-Smith Heather Hopkins

Another fun and productive day at TECH WEEK by a16z highlighting female founders, investors, and our LA startup ecosystem. True to Los Angeles, we had perfect weather... but terrible traffic. Worth it! Started with the Female Founders & Funders Walk hosted by Arlene McCoy at Venturous Counsel. If you are a founder particularly female/diverse... don't wait until you are in trouble to seek a lawyer. Build relationships with people like Arlene NOW. I got a free hat! which makes me happy Because my HSX.com hat from the dot com era was finally starting to degrade. Caught up with other inspiring female founders and investors including Jade Chatham Shelley Tanner (she/her) Victoria Lahutskaya Jovena Natal I stayed longer than I intended, because of the caliber of people. Braved the 10e at rush hour to get to the WeAreLATech VERY impressive and vibrant Female Founders event at the Live Bash location. Espree Devora 🎙️ and her team do SO MUCH for our local startup community and for women. I will never stop thanking you. Nice to be in the same room with such other talented women Lauren Zaslansky Conner, MBA 🌀 Kate Blake April Ly (and many more). Fresh flowers for my g.f. YAYYYYYY Next stop: Preccelerator Program to catch up with fellow ProVisors members Scott Alderton Leonard Lanzi Farida Fotouhi Peter Hutto John McCartney, APR dear friend Tony Winders Amy Wood Paul Shapiro Met more attorneys in the firm including Ani Petrosyan and also William Webster, CPA Did I mention to all you founders and startup leaders that you need solid attorney relationships BEFORE you need a lawyer? Just like you want authentic relationships with recruiting & advisory, even before you really need it <points to self> I am a generous connector and will gladly make intros - just ask. I learned a lot from the Pasadena Angels on the panel: Eva Semple Davis Marcus Filipovich and Lee Gordon. They do not want to invest in SAFEs. I appreciate well informed opinions! Finally, Crosscut Ventures had the best Oktoberfest evah Meeting a new German founder friend Linus Grasel Along with Annie Flynn And not-so-new friends for deep conversations into the night: Ben Padnos Benjamin King Vishal Arora Dhruval Joshi Chirag Sagar Diana Vu and many more! Special thanks to Hank's Dad for showing me puppy pictures (you know who you are) Today is a rest day because #latechweek is a marathon, not a sprint. Will be out in the world again tomorrow... And of course prepping for the week's FINAL event on Sunday, Dreamore Hike & Picnic 3pm to sunset Oct 20. https://lu.ma/o4igeoxk We are Bringing Humanity Back To Hiring. So it's been really nice to be real humans together in real life this week 😀 More please. #inspiration #startups #hiring #recruiting #technology #losangeles #womeninbusiness #womeninleadership #investing #venturecapital
