Women are 51% of the population. Less than 10% of NIH research funding focuses on their health. Less than 0.3% of philanthropic giving goes directly to women's health. WHAM exists to change those numbers.
Women's Health Access Matters is a nonprofit founded in 2020 to build the economic case for investing in women's health — convening leaders across research, government, industry, and business to accelerate funding, close the clinical trial gap, and drive the sex-based innovation that transforms health outcomes. Their partners include NIH, ARPA-H, KPMG, Northwell Health, and Walgreens.
For six months, I served as their lead video editor — taking raw footage from large-scale Zoom conferences and executive interviews and transforming it into polished, social-native content for WHAM's platforms. This wasn't just clipping and trimming. It was building a visual voice from the ground up — developing the editorial approach, pacing, and aesthetic that became the foundation for how WHAM communicates on social going forward.
The work: UGC-style editing that made high-stakes conversations feel accessible, urgent, and shareable — without losing the credibility the mission demands.
