Meet the Team

Romi was started by four women at USC who wanted answers—and couldn’t find them.

We came together through a shared frustration: no one ever really taught us how our cycles worked. Our doctors didn’t explain, our apps were too vague, and our health classes barely scratched the surface.

So we took matters into our own hands. With backgrounds in tech, design, science, and storytelling, we’re combining what we’ve lived with what we’re learning to help other women make sense of their bodies.

Romi is research-backed, stigma-free, and radically curious. We’re starting conversations, breaking myths, and building a new way forward in women’s health.

    “After negative experiences with hormonal birth control, I took control by tracking my basal temperature—transforming my health journey. While effective, current tracking devices remain either unaffordable or cumbersome. For this project, I'll leverage my expertise in healthcare, prosthetics, AI, and information design—as well as my lived experience as a woman—to create accessible, holistic solutions that empower young women with healthier alternatives to synthetic hormones.”

    "Raised in a family with two sisters, a mom, and a feminist dad, I've witnessed the healthcare challenges women face firsthand. I’ve witnessed and experiences the difficult journeys with women's health issues among my close friends and family, which have all highlighted systemic inequities among women health care. During GX, I aim to leverage my technology and UIUX background to address a specific women's health gap where I can make a meaningful impact by creating or reimagining a product that truly addresses women's needs."

    “I have long struggled with irregular menstrual cycles, making it difficult to track my period accurately. I’ve turned to popular period-tracking apps, only to find that they were often oversaturated with generic features that didn’t align with my specific needs. Additionally many advanced wearables felt inaccessible and didn’t cater to women’s health. For GX, I hope to bring my experience in marketing, 3D modeling, and ethical technology to redefine women’s health tracking.”

    “Growing up with trips to Indian villages, I've been constantly exposed to period poverty that affects countless women and girls. Meanwhile, my personal struggle with hormonal issues and irregular periods has given me an intimate understanding of menstrual health challenges. These parallel experiences—witnessing systemic inequality abroad while navigating my own health journey—have fueled my passion to help create accessible, effective solutions for menstrual health. I'm committed to addressing both the social + physical aspects of menstrual health.”
