Susa is a pediatric nurse, chef, and UX designer dedicated to humanizing maternal health.

ZenZen moves beyond data-heavy tracking to provide a 24/7 "knowledgeable friend" in the pocket of every expectant mother. By integrating AI-driven reassurance with chef-led nutritional guidance, Susa is transforming the journey of gestational diabetes into a proactive, joyful experience. She is committed to building empathetic technology that provides what healthcare often forgets: true relief. For more information, please visit: Zenzen.me
