About

Meet Dr. Pooja

Hi! I'm a double-board-certified occupational therapist and gerontologist with nearly a decade of experience across acute care, community-based care, academia, leadership, and consulting. I'm the founder of Aging Together, an educational consultancy supporting family caregivers, and the host of Aging Together, Unfiltered, a podcast amplifying the clinicians, innovators, and thought leaders reshaping how we think about aging and caregiving in America. My work sits at the intersection of aging, caregiving, health systems, and innovation, helping families, organizations, and professionals understand what it truly takes to care for an aging population. Learn more at aging-together.com.

My newest venture is The OT Algorithm, building AI literacy among OT students, practitioners, and educators. Learn more at theotalgorithm.com.
