MINNEAPOLIS, April 20, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Reema Health, a community-based health technology platform, announced the company has added two strategic new roles to its leadership team. Melissa Kjolsing has been named as Reema’s Chief Growth Officer and Nafula Namuninia has joined as Director of Field Operations.
As Chief Growth Officer, Melissa Kjolsing will spearhead strategic growth initiatives and lead business development for Reema. “As an industry leader who has been firmly embedded in Minnesota’s vibrant startup community for years, Melissa knows how to drive growth in a way that is both impactful and purposeful,” said Reema CEO Justin Ley.
“The inspiration for Reema Health and the population we serve are personally significant,” Kjolsing said. “I’m excited to contribute to Reema’s powerful mission and help improve health outcomes for people who have historically been hardest to reach.” Along with a proven track record in private enterprise, Kjolsing is known for a five-year stint as leader of the MN Cup, the largest statewide startup competition in the country.
As Director of Field Operations, Nafula Namuninia will lead Reema’s staff of experienced Community Guides and provide strategic guidance on the continuing development of Reema’s health technology platform. She is a seasoned healthcare leader with more than a decade supporting underserved populations in the U.S. and Kenya. “Nafula’s experiences working with a broad swath of private, nonprofit and public health programs will be an immense asset for Reema’s leadership team moving forward,” Ley said.
“Reema’s inquisitive approach and commitment to continuous improvement drew me to this opportunity right away,” Namuninia said. “I’m looking forward to helping Reema connect even more deeply with people who really need access to better social care, as a bridge to better health outcomes in the long term.”
Reema combines advanced technology with human interaction to transform how people navigate the gaps between health care and social care. CEO Ley added that the company is expanding its leadership roster in part to accommodate recent growth into new markets within the Midwest and East Coast regions.
