Meet Our Co-Founders

​MARGOT BELLON

Co-Founder and Executive Director

Margot Bellon earned her BS in Biology and MS in Epidemiology and Clinical Research from Stanford University. During her undergraduate years, she volunteered at the Heart and Home Collaborative, a local homeless shelter in Palo Alto, where she witnessed firsthand the impact of technology inequity in the Bay Area. She also served as a volunteer in Stanford’s emergency department, serving as a social services advocate for uninsured or under-insured patients. Following her graduation, Margot expanded her expertise in nonprofit work and health disparities as a Medical Fellow with Saving Mothers, a nonprofit organization focused on improving maternal health outcomes in New York. She is currently a medical student at Drexel University College of Medicine. Outside of her academic and professional pursuits, Margot enjoys long-distance running and spending time outdoors.

ISABEL WANG

Co-Founder and Executive Director​

Isabel Wang grew up working on community initiatives focused on race-relations education and public-health program implementation, where she saw how access to essentials like food, family health coverage, and early learning opportunities shapes children's abilities to fully engage in class. Those experiences sparked a commitment to strengthening that foundation. At Stanford University, she studied Symbolic Systems and immersed herself in technology and innovation, gaining an appreciation for the creative freedom of digital empowerment and the barriers faced by those without reliable access to technology and digital education, which led her to join teams building digital health tools to share information and support kids, teachers, and healthcare workers. She continued her advocacy through a summer health policy fellowship on social drivers of health and, after graduation, taught English to elementary school students in Taiwan through the Fulbright U.S. Student Program, affirming her belief that education and technology can help open doors. Now, Isabel attends Yale School of Medicine while co-leading Bridging Tech, volunteering at the HAVEN Free Clinic, and participating in the performing arts.
