It’s not hard to find big problems within our country’s healthcare system, but one of the larger problems we will face over the coming decade is how we will collectively manage a rapidly aging population when the number of healthcare workers will not necessarily keep up.

There is an opportunity to use technology to move a greater portion of healthcare from hospitals and nursing homes back into the home, where it’s less expensive and where most people would rather be. However, the complexities and regulations within healthcare often hold back progress and are part of the reason the industry is 10 years behind many other industries in terms of how it uses technology to coordinate work.

In addition to appreciating also having a social mission, I’ve personally always been drawn to working on complex, multifaceted problems. For me, it never gets boring working on something that combines various disciplines ranging from UX design to software and hardware to medicine to policy and finance. There is always something new to learn.
