About me
Hi everyone! 👋 I’m Paul! I think of myself as an entrepreneur and innovator. I had a childhood dream of moving to Silicon Valley. I was lucky to make that dream a reality in 2013 when I moved from a tiny countryside village in the UK 🇬🇧 to San Francisco when I was in my 20s to found Lemonaid Health. 🍋
During an 8 year rollercoaster ride at Lemonaid we raised over $60 million, recruited a fantastic team of nearly 200 and helped millions of patients get access to more convenient, more accessible healthcare. We ended up selling Lemonaid for $400 million in November 2021. This was a little over 10x our Series A price.
Lemonaid is recognized as creating the “consumerization of healthcare” movement in the US. We were the first to provide access to birth control pills by mobile app. We were the first to provide a national mental health treatment service for patients suffering from anxiety and depression. We were the first to provide a fully digital high blood pressure treatment service.
I started my entrepreneurial journey as a teenager with my first business when I was 16. I was a finalist entrepreneur of the year aged 17 and then spent my career running large P&Ls (from $50m to $300m+), impactful marketing budgets ($200m+) and recruiting rockstar teams.
Since Lemonaid was sold I’ve been advising some of the leading US venture funds, and coaching and advising founders and CEOs. I spend a lot of time playing pickleball (including in some professional level tournaments) 🏓, if you haven’t tried it it’s so fun.
