After documenting RemoteID’s secure information management capabilities as both a tool for monitoring & evaluation and interventions, she worked to bring this technology to scale. Brooke is the founder and CEO of Remote Harbor, which has increased secure access to health and social services to more than 25 million vulnerable individuals around the world using RemoteID and integrated mobile health platforms.
