Blake's mother once told him that her favorite moments caregiving for her father were in the doctor's office waiting room—because it was the only time she could just sit with him and feel like a daughter again, not just a caregiver. This insight sparked Blake's mission to create more of these moments for families everywhere. After earning his MPH in Healthcare Management from Yale School of Public Health and studying Human Development with a focus on Gerontology at Cornell, Blake gained hands-on experience providing psychological services to veterans with PTSD and addiction, and conducting research with homeless populations. His work at Cornell's Institute for Translational Research on Aging and previous experience co-founding a holistic health company deepened his understanding of both healthcare systems and the human experience of navigating care. Today, as Co-founder and CEO of Upkeep Care, Blake combines this personal passion with academic expertise and real-world experience to build AI technology that returns dignity and time to those seeking care.
