Thank you so much for joining us today. Why don't we start with your journey, Hallie? What first drew you to healthcare and ultimately led you to found Rock Health, you know, a decade and a half ago?
Halle Tecco 3:15
Yeah, thanks, Jonathan, and thanks for having me. I'm a longtime listener, first-time guest, so really excited for our conversation today. I came to healthcare when I was in business school, and I was really interested in combining my interest in technology, and at that time, kind of more broadly discussing social impact. And I started just putting feelers out there and learning about different areas and reading up on different social problems within the U.S. And honestly, health care was the one that I was most drawn to, felt like something that touches all of us, something that I personally was very passionate about, seeing family members deal with certain health experiences, my own health care experiences.
Halle Tecco 4:02
And I ended up at the time I was just blogging and I was starting to just share ideas. That's the best way I know how to learn is actually synthesizing what I'm learning and then putting it out there in the world and starting these conversations is something I've always done. But something I wrote got the attention of the then chief of staff to Steve Jobs. And he reached out to me and said, why don't you come spend the summer at Apple? We want to do more in health care.
