We spend trillions of dollars keeping old people alive and next to nothing teaching children how to be healthy. Both physical and mental health should be a foundation of a child’s development. That’s my goal. I won’t stop until it happens and @Mimithehippo will lead the way.

Had the honor of engaging with @SenTinaSmith today alongside other leaders and founders from #medicalalley to talk about digital health and telemedicine solutions to help rural and elderly populations. My focus was on the importance of educating kids at an early age.
