Hi, I'm Rosa

Product leader | Exited founder | Advisor

Building & backing the infrastructure for human health

I help early-stage health-tech founders hit PMF faster.

My Story

Hi! I'm Rosa! I'm on a personal mission to build companies that improve human health.

I co-founded & spent 7 years building Rupa Health, a marketplace for doctors to order advanced lab testing. We scaled to 200+ teammates, supported 100,000+ patients, and reached a nine-figure exit. At Rupa I led product, design and built our operational functions from zero to one.

Today, I am leading product & design at Gaia Family. I also selectively angel invest & advise ambitious founders in health.

Outside of building, I love hosting events, adventure travel & bad dad jokes. I currently split time between NYC & Boston.

How I Engage

Advising

I advise a limited number of VC-backed health companies (pre-seed to Series A) on product strategy, GTM clarity, and clinical workflows.

Product Sprints
Speaking

I run focused product sprints with 2–3 teams per year. These are intensive engagements designed to unlock PMF signals.

I speak & moderate panels on design thinking, product leadership, and operator lessons from the field.

Work With Me

I work with a small number of founders & teams each year.

Advising

I advise VC-backed health and wellness companies at the pre-seed to Series A stage. I focus on:

  • Product strategy & PMF signals

  • Clinical and operational workflows

  • GTM clarity and early distribution

  • Founder decision-making

Best for founders who want clear thinking, fast feedback, and operator-level judgment.

Product Sprints

I run focused 4–6 week product sprints with select teams.

Designed to:

  • Clarify ICP and core use cases

  • Pressure-test product direction

  • Align product, GTM, and narrative

  • Create momentum toward PMF

This is hands-on, opinionated work — not theory.

I speak and moderate panels on:

  • Building products in regulated health environments

  • Lessons from scaling health tech companies

  • Product leadership and founder decision-making


Popular with VC firms, accelerators, and operator audiences.

Speaking
