DEI Changemaker of Tomorrow

In this episode, Mercy Oladipo, a recent Massachusetts Institute of Technology graduate, joins Dr. Johnson. While Mercy is the youngest guest on Crossing the Chasm, she is far from the least accomplished. While in school, Mercy developed the pregnancy app for Black women, Birth by Us, and launched it shortly after graduation. Birth by Us is a patient-based tool that helps guide users to better outcomes and experiences. Mercy shares her passion for serving her community in this conversation and how she started Birth by Us.
