@POLITICO nailed it - OURA has won over Washington. Proud to lead @ouraring ‘s federal health and FDA lobbying strategy at @invariant. We are just getting started. More exciting work on the way very soon.
We met with @IMGAcademy to discuss their on-campus & online programming for student-athletes, including a boarding school & industry-leading camps at its Bradenton campus. Their efforts support student-athletes on their journey from exploration to specialization to graduation.
Thanks to @SenatorCardin '67, U.S. Rep. @HillaryScholten '12, U.S. Rep. @RepSwalwell '06, Jessica R. Killeen '13, and @sweyler95 '20 who joined the Maryland Carey Law community today for an inspiring discussion hosted by the Maryland Law Review!
Thrilled to participate in this Maryland Law Review panel alongside @SenatorCardin, @RepSwalwell, @RepScholten and Jessica Killeen to discuss the invaluable role a law degree plays in effective advocacy, lobbying, and informed policymaking.
Collegiate athletics are incredibly demanding on student-athletes and create a unique pressure unfamiliar to most of their classmates. I'm working w/ @SenBooker and others to improve access to resources and support their mental health needs as they navigate school, sports & more.
Congratulations @RepBera on receiving the Champion of Healthcare Innovation Award. Thanks for stopping by @GuardantHealth today! Encouraged to see your interest in healthcare innovation. #HLCExpo23.
Enjoyed having the opportunity to talk with Speaker Emerita Pelosi today on behalf of Guardant Health to discuss advancements in cancer screening technology.
Congratulations @SpeakerPelosi on receiving the Champion of Healthcare Innovation Award. It was an honor to show the future of healthcare at the #HLCExpo23@GuardantHealth

What’s happening with the #election? Votes must be counted, and races called to determine control of the House and Senate. Republicans are likely to win the House, and control of the Senate is in flux. Download our update and read key takeaways below: https://t.co/swulvow9Gd
Check out my blog on #FDA user fees - a “must-pass” piece of legislation that should receive significant bipartisan support in both chambers of Congress.
.@US_FDA is front and center as Congress works to reauthorize several industry user fee programs. This reauthorization bill is “must-pass” legislation, creating opportunities for other health care priorities. Here's what you need to know: https://t.co/HLTjNh7IP9
