At Digital Therapeutix, Inc. (DTPx), we’re on a mission to tackle one of healthcare’s biggest challenges: antibiotic resistance. We’re harnessing the power of AI and bacteriophage therapy to offer new, life-saving treatments. As CEO, I’m at the helm, driving our vision to transform innovative ideas into real solutions that connect patients, providers, and industry experts alike. Our partnership with UC Berkeley’s StEP incubator supercharges our journey, providing invaluable resources to help us move faster and smarter. My focus? Defining our mission, building a dynamic team, expanding our platform, spreading awareness about phage therapy, and securing the funding and partnerships that fuel our growth—all while keeping patient safety and ethics front and center.

Murrieta, Ca, Us

As an Entrepreneur in Residence, I had a front-row seat to the challenges and opportunities in healthcare. I saw firsthand the threat of antibiotic resistance and the untapped potential of bacteriophage therapy. This inspired me to launch Digital Therapeutix, where we use AI to harness phages—viruses that target harmful bacteria—for precise, adaptive infection treatments. The platform we plan to design will transform how we combat antibiotic-resistant infections, offering a sustainable and scalable path to a healthier future.

Through my work at the J|COM Innovation & Design Lab, I explored how advancements in genomics and phage therapeutics could reshape the future of antibiotics.Partnering with Dr. Cynthia S. Cheng, we researched how genomics could unlock the potential of bacteriophage therapy as a viable alternative to traditional antibiotics. Rather than publishing our findings, we transformed our insights into the foundation for a startup—Digital Therapeutix.We took key steps: analyzing genomics and phage therapy, conceptualizing a phage-based solution, and evaluating the market landscape for launching a company.
