Yes the science started in a lab and was proven in a clinic, but Attune came to life in my home and the homes of those that supported the research. Attune was born in the real world, not in a boardroom.

I watched my daughter fight for good grades while losing friends, being bullied because of her emotional outbursts from managing her diagnosis, while carrying a level of anxiety that most adults couldn’t handle. I saw my son go from being seen as a threat to becoming part of a thriving social community when the right adults finally understood what he needed, and then I watched how fragile that stability can be when systems fail. I have had more than one moment in a schoolyard or hallway where a child, one of mine or someone in our community, is in full distress, an adult is doing their best, and everyone is still losing.

I also saw Attune on my daughter’s wrist, and watched her light up because a device could show her that she is escalating before things go off the rails. That tiny window, that sense of “I can see it coming, and I can do something” is the spark and the gravitational pull that is driving me to make sure that others can have the hope and confidence I saw in her in that moment.

Professionally, I’ve built. From wearables and apps to data platforms and high‑regulatory infrastructure. I’ve grown multiple product lines from a zero or a few million to six figures and helped raise of millions in funding. I am an optimist but not a fictional dreamer and I am not chasing an abstract “opportunity.” I found something that is consuming for all the right reasons, and Attune chose me as much as I chose Attune.
