Aparna Rao

As a clinician, entrepreneur and thought leader in human-centered design, behavior change and pathway empowerment. Aparna loves listening to various stakeholders identifying market gaps and building solutions that enhance person-centered outcomes.

In her role as founder and CEO at eCare Vault, Aparna fosters a team culture of camaraderie, innovation and servant leadership. She brings to bear several decades of corporate experience in strategy and market entry, which always begins with the voice of the customer.

Her family and friends know Aparna as a mom who loves playing board games with her kids and as a fun, energetic dancer who will keep you on your toes. In the not-so-distant future, she sees herself in local theater productions, volunteering at a wildlife sanctuary and building mental health awareness in developing countries.

Fun fact: Aparna spent five days, horse-riding in the Argentinean Andes mountains with zero riding experience, resulting in a couple of stunt-worthy falls.
