Follow along! https://bigtripinfluencerfamily.substack.com/subscribeI most recently worked at Sensorium Therapeutics, a company I co-founded dedicated to transforming insights from nature into transformational medicines combating the mental health crisis. Beyond Sensorium, I work with a variety of stakeholders to advance psychedelic-assisted therapies and other innovative medicines as tools to tackle the mental health crisis. I moved to Asheville, NC in 2021 and am doing what I can to contribute to the local entrepreneurial ecosystem here.Activities include:- launching the Center for the Neuroscience of Psychedelics at Massachusetts General Hospital (massgeneral.org/psychedelics)- co-authoring the Psychedelic Landscape Report for the Psychedelic Science Funders Collaborative (https://psfc.co/landscape-report)- organizing educational programming and convenings at venues including the World Economic Forum, TED conference, and elsewhere- serving as a board member for the Boston Psychedelic Research Group- supporting/investing in MAPS, The Pearl Psychedelic Institute, Healing Advocacy Fund, Psychedelic Science Funders Collaborative, Fantastic Fungi, Mycomedica Life Sciences, Compass Pathways, ATAI Life Sciences, and the Microdose: a newsletter from the U.C.
