Prior to SignalFire, she was a product leader at CVS Health, where she launched nationwide prescription delivery and virtual care products, and Devoted Health, currently valued at over $12 billion.

At Underscore VC, she invested in fast-growing B2B software startups, including life sciences tech products used by leading biopharma companies across the drug development cycle from R&D to commercial stages. She began her career at Michael Porter’s strategy firm where she advised healthcare & biopharma executives.

Sooah has a joint-degree MBA | MPP from Harvard Business School and Harvard Kennedy School, where she worked with startup founders at the HBS Rock Center for Entrepreneurship and built her digital health investment thesis as a Rock Venture Partner with Bain Capital.

As a product builder, GTM strategist, and policy nerd turned investor, she partners with founders at the earliest stages of their discovery, building, and scaling journey. She’s excited to reimagine how we develop, deliver, & pay for healthcare today and usher in a new era of AI-enabled health and longevity for all.
