## Our story I was raised on an old farm in a small town. There was a lot to love about my hometown, but like in many rural communities, no one talked about mental health. As a kid struggling with anxiety and my own identity, I felt stifled. For years, I couldn’t imagine a version of my life I wanted to live. It would’ve made all the difference to have a coach or counselor help me reflect on who I was—and who I wanted to be. With Cartwheel, I’m doing everything I can to help the next generation of kids envision and build a life they’re excited to live. ###### Joe English CEO and Co-Founder When I was a kid, mental health wasn’t something people talked about. While today I see more and more people being open about their mental health, when they try to seek help they find that the system is broken: Long waitlists, exorbitant costs, confusing processes, no way to evaluate the quality of care, and technology stuck in the 20th century. At Cartwheel, we’re partnering with schools to give kids access to care when and where they need it. ###### Daniel Tartakovsky Co-Founder and COO I’m a second-generation child of immigrant parents who grew up in a family and culture where we didn’t talk much about emotions or difficult topics. There was so much that was left unsaid, and I felt like I had to carry on my own. These early experiences have shaped my career path and inspired me. Through Cartwheel, I am excited to expand opportunities for all children to have that forever-critical experience of feeling supported and emotionally seen and heard. ###### Juliana Chen Chief Medical Officer ## Our team is your team. ### Juliana Chen, MD #### Chief Medical Officer ### Irza Torres Lozano #### Licensed Therapist ### Jessica Nielsen #### Clinical Manager ### Bridget Ormond #### Clinical Manager ### Erik Wagner #### Account Executive ### Stacy Swasey, LICSW #### Program Manager ### Sarah Nichols #### Director of School Success ### Joe English #### Co-Founder and CEO, Cartwheel ### Sue Robidoux #### Credentialing and Onboarding Manager ### Joanna Domanski #### Care Manager ### Jeremy Gunter #### Engineering Manager ### Kendall Denike #### Senior Product Designer ### William Dana #### Senior Software Engineer ### Andy Cross #### Senior Software Engineer We deliver evidence-based care to students and families and collaborate with school teams throughout.
