Founder & Ceo of Skinmetal: Dr. Wendy Sue Swanson

​We’re excited to welcome Dr. Wendy Sue Swanson as an upcoming speaker with Badger Future Founders.

​Dr. Swanson is a pediatrician, digital health leader, and bioethicist with 20+ years of experience across clinical care, startups, hospital leadership, and media. She is currently an Adjunct Professor at Stanford University School of Medicine, a Forbes Health Board Advisor, and a nationally recognized keynote speaker on digital health, communication, and prevention.

​Previously, she served as Chief Medical Officer at Before Brands through its acquisition by Nestlé Health Science and founded the Digital Health department at Seattle Children’s Hospital, where she was later named Chief of Digital Innovation.

​Her work focuses on transforming how health information is communicated and trusted, using digital tools, media, and innovation to bridge the gap between doctors and the public.

​This will be a great conversation for students curious about building at the intersection of health, technology, and entrepreneurship.
