Background

About Amber Leigh

I've been in this industry for over 23 years, with over a decade physically performing molecular laboratory processes within tight regulatory and payment environments, and another decade developing the software expertise to support the growing and changing healthcare tools needed to truly enable the genomics era. I'm obsessed with this. If you meet me on a plane, I probably told you all about the cool future ahead of us, or I talked to you about your loved ones and how my work helps them. I truly care, and when this career is done I intend to spend my retirement helping patients and families understand these complex tests and getting better care. I've spent years bringing laboratories up "from the studs" and managing superstar teams, working on effective communication and simplified processes, but more than anything, I'm all about taking complex concepts and translating the science into a patient-level understanding.
