Welcome, I’m Sam!

I’m the Co-Founder of Ompractice,
a live yoga and meditation startup.

🧘 At Ompractice, we’re solving population health issues with a focus on access and inclusivityOmpractice offers group online yoga and meditation, and mindful movement classes via two way video where the teacher actually sees and supports you. With 100+ classes on the public schedule, we’ve got individual students across all 50 states, and across the globe. Anyone can sign up for $24.99/month, but we’re focused on b2b partnerships to drive massive population health impact: we work directly with health insurers (Harvard Pilgrim, Tufts Health Plan, to name just a few), corporations, and large associations (AARP, the Department of Veterans Affairs) to provide high quality classes to students who may otherwise lack access – at scale. 

🔥 Together we thrive: I am passionate about partnering with technology startups, small businesses, and creative entrepreneurs in a variety of capacities. I’m a Jill of all Trades, and I thrive on solving hard problems, improving communication and efficiency in fast paced environments, addressing scaling challenges, and building great teams.
