Heather Aspras, MBA, is the Vice President of Impact at Every Cure, where she leads efforts to close the gap between overlooked medicines and the patients waiting for them. In this role, she shapes Every Cure’s work with the real-world needs of patients, clinicians, and the broader healthcare ecosystem in mind, and drives how repurposing breakthroughs are shared, understood, and taken up by key stakeholders.
Heather brings more than 20 years of experience across biopharma strategy, commercialization, and cross-functional leadership, with a focus on oncology and complex therapeutic innovation. Prior to joining Every Cure, she held leadership roles in marketing, product launch, and new product strategy at Merck and GSK.
Throughout her career, Heather has worked at the intersection of scientific innovation and real-world clinical adoption, thriving in the whitespace between discovery and delivery – where innovation is promising, but the path to patients is not yet clear. A hallmark of Heather’s leadership is bringing structured strategic thinking to enable teams to navigate complexity, advance new therapeutic paradigms, and create pathways where none existed to bring breakthrough therapies to patients responsibly and effectively.
Heather earned her MBA with honors from the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, with a double major in Health Care Management and Marketing, and her BA summa cum laude in Public Policy from Princeton University.
