There's all of these subtle factors in our environment and our habits, but it really does take stepping away from it all to get that perspective.
Yeah, happy to. I trained as a physician. I got my PhD in genetics, both from Case Western Reserve in Ohio. Oddly enough, and I know we were having some IT challenges at the beginning of the call, so maybe you'll find this amusing, but the reason I got into Sensei was because of technology and data of all things.

The intention was to think about human beings on the inside, as well as on the outside as complex systems that maybe we don't understand how everything works, but maybe if we measure more of it, we can start painting a more complete picture of how human beings work. And that was really what motivated me. And when I came to Sensei, it was the same vision that I

Yeah, our guests as high performers, we're all hell bent on figuring out how this world works and making it better in some form or fashion. And we're really analytical. We like to measure everything around us so that we can perform better, faster, harder. And the thought was, well, why don't we take that language of data that really speaks to us and to our guests

and use it as almost like a mirror to turn that lens inward. Say, why don't we measure you? Why don't we shed some light on how you're doing? So some of the initial data that we were collecting, basic things like blood pressure and lipid panels that were just surprising, but our guests hadn't had that measured in a while.

We had a partnership with Whoop, which was tremendous, because then we started collecting real life, real world data. you know, our guests in the wild and their home environments. And we get to see how they're doing and whether they're doing well or not so well. And then there's some real exciting innovations that Sensei has incubated. One that I'm passionate about is around thermography.

And we're using thermal cameras that are used in like home construction and defense. But again, we're taking that lens and pointing it at the human being and saying, well, why don't we look at your thermal patterns and thermal signatures? Why don't we try to understand skin temperature as a biomarker and to tell us, to try and figure out what does that tell us about what's happening inside of you?
