Driven by personal purpose and lived experiences

The CareMessage team brings a variety of perspectives and a deep commitment to solving important problems in the world.

OUR FOUNDERS

Joint commitment to healthcare.

Vineet Singal, Co-founder, Chief Executive Officer

Vineet was born in India, and was raised in a four different countries including Saudi Arabia and New Zealand. His parents, who are both physicians, eventually settled in New York City.

He went on to attend Stanford University, where he was on a path to medical school. While enrolled at Stanford University, Vineet took a temporary break from school to volunteer at St. Vincent’s Free Clinic in Galveston, Texas after Hurricane Ike had destroyed parts of the city and the need for affordable healthcare skyrocketed.

Through communicating with patients via text message, Vineet realized the power of messaging in helping engage patients with their care. This became the foundation for CareMessage.

After graduating from Stanford University and dropping out of his medical school acceptance, Vineet created the organization that became CareMessage.

Cecilia Corral, Co-founder, Chief Strategy Officer

Cecilia grew up between the United States and Mexico. At the age of one her family moved to the Rio Grande Valley of Texas with nothing more than their personal belongings. She grew up reliant on the safety-net, including Medicaid and food stamps, as her parents tried to make ends meet.

In high school, Cecilia was first introduced to technology while completing a dual-enrollment program in engineering at South Texas College. She went on to attend Stanford University where she studied Product Design Engineering and was the first in her family to graduate from college.

Her four years at Stanford, Cecilia worked at the School of Engineering leading a variety of STEM diversity programs, trying to drive change in the representation of women and people of color in tech. This led to her pursuing a PhD in Mechanical Engineering at the University of Texas at Austin with a focus on engineering education in K-12.

2013

CareMessage was founded in 2012 and iterated on a variety of solutions. In 2013, after Cecilia’s father passed away after a battle with prostate cancer, she joined Vineet in building CareMessage, seeking an opportunity to apply her technical skillset to a problem she understood very well.

On October 21, 2013, the first 13 patients were messaged through CareMessage.

CAREMESSAGE TODAY

Shared purpose to improve health equity for all.

CareMessage has evolved to reach millions of patients nationwide every year. It has vastly exceeded any of the milestones that were originally envisioned for the organization. Today, our team remains committed to the populations it aims to serve, and fundamentally believes in the power that lived experiences bring to solving the systemic issues that persist today.

From our leadership team, to our board of directors and advisory boards, we are focused on bringing together a diverse group of people who are looking to apply their expertise towards creating a more equitable world. We are grateful for their contributions to our work and the role they play in pushing CareMessage to expand our impact in the world.
