About Kanav
About
I'm a systems thinker and product leader who bridges technology, neurodiversity advocacy, and social justice. I love untangling messy structures and designing alternatives that make care, dignity, and accessibility the default.
At Doximity, I led the creation of Doximity Dialer, which now enables over 100 million patient–clinician connections. I later co-founded Andwise to help physicians navigate financial and legal complexity—a venture that deepened my commitment to challenging systemic inefficiencies.
As an autistic person, my advocacy for neurodiversity and cognitive justice is lived as much as written. Every product, article, and collaboration is an invitation to imagine more equitable, care-centered systems.

Designing for a less coercive future
I translate research on neurodiversity, patient safety, and market dynamics into actionable product moves.
Care as default
Build flows that reduce cognitive load, respect consent, and widen participation instead of gatekeeping it.
Evidence over lore
Pair qualitative fieldwork with quantitative telemetry to replace harmful heuristics with measurable care outcomes.
Trustworthy automation
Keep humans in the loop with explainable AI, handoffs that feel human, and quality guardrails for sensitive decisions.
