We are back with our next Lift for Founders LinkedIn Live community event on Thursday, January 30th at 9am PST/12pm EST! We are proud to share a female founder’s purpose driven journey at the intersection of art and science. 🎭 ✨ Founder Ryan Reid's lifelong passion is improving the health and well-being of older adults. Her immersive experiences include working in memory care, researching aging as a Fulbright scholar in Nepal, directing award-winning theater focused on elder isolation, serving as a board member for long-term care centers, and instructing art classes in senior living. These experiences have provided her with first-hand insight into the needs of this population and the perspectives of associated stakeholders, and sparked her passion to solve for the loneliness epidemic in our aging community. Reid is the founder and CEO of Bream, a company that entertains, engages, and improves the health of older adults. Bream has been part of the AgeTech Collaborative™ from AARP, as well as the JP Morgan Techstars program. In 2014, she also founded Sprat, a healthcare company serving older adults. With an academic background in human-centered design from Parsons School of Design and Eugene Lang College, Ms. Reid’s multifaceted expertise at the intersection of gerontology, creative arts, research, and entrepreneurship uniquely positions her to lead the #AgeTech company of the future.
