Since she founded MedStars in 1986, DeGheest has been a corporate development advisor to large healthcare companies and a mentor capitalist specializing in investing and mentoring early-stage companies in healthcare. Her life science portfolio companies have generated over $27 billion in market capitalization, including 8 IPOs.

HealthTech capital is an ecosystem of angels, venture capitalists, providers, payors, and healthcare industry key players with the three sets of expertise needed to succeed in this new HealthTech space: healthcare, technology, and user engagement.
A frequent speaker at industry conferences and a guest-lecturer at Stanford Business School, DeGheest has an MBA from Harvard and a Master in Business Engineering from University of Brussels. She is also a recognized artist.
