Share This Post

It’s our honor to announce Heather Cartwright has joined the CureGRIN Board of Directors.

Heather brings more than 20 years of experience building strong brands and businesses across North America and Europe. Most recently with Google, Heather advised leading consumer goods firms on digital solutions that build businesses and brands. Previously, she helped many small and large clients across all industries strengthen their brand performance as a strategy consultant and practice leader at Interbrand. 

Three years ago, Heather paused her career to focus on caring for and finding a cure for her son Maximilian, who has a mutation of the GRIA4 gene. She learned from researchers about the similarities across all the GRIA genes and started to build a global community of GRIA families. Further learning from researchers about the similarities and interconnectedness across all GRI genes led her to CureGRIN. Heather lives in Germany with her husband and three children.

Please join us in welcoming Heather!
