Pam Baker considers herself a connector of people and ideas. She spent more than 20 years in healthcare at companies big and small and across biotech, pharmaceuticals, digital health, diagnostics and consulting. She’s led teams across commercial, product development and market access sectors in early stage startups to F50 companies. Outside of healthcare, she founded and led a career and communications startup and is drawn to mentoring and activating new and future leaders, markets and possibilities. In 2020, Pam’s husband Doug died of pancreatic cancer shortly after diagnosis. Two years later, she founded the Women's Coaching Alliance in honor of Doug’s efforts to grow the number of women coaching youth sports.
Originally from New Jersey, Pam received her BA in Political Science and Asian Studies from Northwestern University and a graduate degree in International Management from Thunderbird. Pam is the mom of teenage twin daughters and a strong advocate for women's leadership. She serves on the board of the International Women's Forum and the Field Middle School.
Outside of work, Pam can be found cooking, watching movies with her daughters, or getting an endorphin rush on her road bike in any number of paths on the San Francisco Peninsula.
