About the solution
One key problem was her difficulty to sleep at night, which could not be curbed by back braces available in the market, for those were designed to be used during daytime. She thus developed a solution for her own problem: the Nighttime Back Brace. Being a student of business administration focusing in healthcare innovation, she built a company around the product and participated in the Harvard Business School Health Acceleration Challenge.
