Background

About Amy Puliafito

As Director of Strategic Partnerships at Evidation Health, I focus on building collaborations that harness Evidation’s unique health tracking platform and robust real-world dataset to drive innovation across therapeutic areas. I've spent the last decade connecting and learning from mission-driven individuals and organizations across health technology. As a consultant serving technology, digital health, and biotech clients in the Bay Area and beyond, I've worked with founders and executive teams to shape diverse brand strategies and stories.Prior to launching my own consultancy, I was Director of Product Marketing at Freenome, an AI genomics company that is leveraging cancer's faintest traces as medicine's most powerful tools. Prior to that, I was the first marketing hire and Director of Communications at Misfit, maker of elegantly designed wearable products. I joined the company when we were based out of a house in Daly City and shipping product out of the garage. Misfit was acquired by Fossil Group, the world’s top watch and accessories manufacturer, in December 2015. Post-acquisition, I worked across Fossil Group’s portfolio of brands on their technology marketing and communications efforts. Prior to Misfit, I led marketing and media relations at Rock Health, the first seed fund exclusively for health technology companies. There I led the accelerator’s marketing, content, public relations, and thought leadership and advised portfolio companies.I received my BA in sociology from Northwestern and wrote my senior thesis on digital communication technologies in public health interventions, looking at the impact of a USAID-funded, Johns Hopkins-led program on HIV/AIDS and early pregnancy. A long time dancer and yogi, I'm now an avid novice in olympic-style weightlifting. I am an NBA and Golden State Warriors fan and I love learning about both the game and business of basketball.I love speaking at events, moderating panels, and interviewing people. Some of my past speaking experience includes SXSW Interactive, MIT EmTech, the mHealth Summit, the Wharton SF Executive MBA Entrepreneurship Lunchtime Speaker Series, Decoded NY, the Wearable Tech Expo, the Re.Work Technology Summit, the Re.Work Internet of Things Summit, and the Wireless Medical Devices Conference.
