Jean A. Wooldridge, MPH, founded St. Cloud Communications, a small consultancy near Seattle, to focus on emerging technologies for consumer and global public health and to foster strategies and connections between private and public sectors. She is passionate about accelerating the adoption of “quantified self” technology to support dignified consumer choice in end-of-life issues for the world’s aging populations. 

Selected talks include “Radical Digital Literacy” (NIH communication directors) and “Digital Literacy: The Citizen and the Patient” (Pan American World Health Organization and International E-Learning Summit). 

Jean’s non-research publications include invited chapters on bellwether industries and symbiotic stewardships for technology and healthcare for the Amsterdam IOS Press series, edited by R. Bushko, on “Future Health Technology.” Jean was nominated for the Distinguished Alumni for Masters in Public Health Program (EDP) at the University of Washington, linking private and public sectors and strategic visioning of online collaborations for complex health problems.
