Since joining Ro almost a year ago, Analyst Swetta Chandra has been building analytical frameworks to help drive strategic initiatives and financial decisions at the company. She said she values having a tangible impact on not only the business, but also the company’s cultural make-up as a member of the diversity committee. Learn more about what her day-to-day looks like below.

Where she works: Ro is a healthtech company building a patient-centric healthcare system. Ro’s platform connects telehealth, diagnostics and pharmacy services to provide quality, affordable healthcare without the need for insurance.

On her to-do list:

Evaluate cross-pollination: a critical metric to assess our performance toward helping patients address more than one health need and becoming their first call.
Build analytical instruments to enable measurement and close surveillance of key metrics and correlated trends.
Design logical apparatus to analyze financial forecasts and actualize against them to ensure that we are maintaining a healthy business.
As a representative of our org’s diversity team, I also meet with the people and tech team leaders to relay Ro’s diversity, benchmarks and initiatives. I help them set mid- and long-term goals to bring great talent to Ro.

“A huge perk of working in a growing, data-driven organization is seeing the impact of my efforts on business decisions and the larger shared mission”.

Which task gets her out of bed in the morning: Our most exciting work right now is around cross-pollination and evaluating how a single patient can benefit from the multiple healthcare services we offer because it’s a perfect mix of nuance and complexity. It requires extensive collaboration across teams who are all looking to determine how we can provide an integrated and holistic healthcare experience for patients.
