Bio
C. Grace Juneau Whiting
I had the pleasure of working with Lisa during her work at FasterCures and at the Biden Cancer Initiative as colleagues working in the patient-advocacy space. I think the world of her and her work -- she has always been a kind and thoughtful colleague with an interest in helping people live better lives. She's got a great mind to analyze policy but can pivot quickly to talking about how a policy might impact real people. I have always been impressed at her understanding of relationships and how to develop partnerships while still protecting the people she serves.
