Summary

Susan Digiaimo worked as the Senior Director, Global Accounts for Theranos, the fifth employee hired at the now-defunct health technology company that soared in valuation after the company claimed to have revolutionized blood testing by developing methods that could use surprisingly small volumes of blood, such as from a fingerprick. She discusses her experience in the early years of the company and her personal experiences with Elizabeth Holmes, the company’s Founder and CEO.

Abby Gardner, writer and host of We Have Notes podcast, helps Kate review this season of Summer House on Bravo.
