Glioblastoma doesn’t arrive slowly. It arrives all at once.

New language, urgent decisions, limited time. And families are expected to function immediately.

We learned the hard way, so we built what we felt we needed.

Founder stories

Jason Binder

Founder

Jason spent 45 months caring for his wife, Tracy, during her battle with glioblastoma.

He lived the long arc of the disease, the constant recalibration, the late-night research, and the pressure to make decisions with incomplete clarity.

He saw how fragmented the information was and how much responsibility fell on families to translate it into action.

With a background in data, research, and therapeutic development, he began building AI tools to help them think more clearly and prepare more intentionally. After seeing traction with his first tool, it was clear families needed this support.

Ember grew from that need.

Angeline Giammona

Cofounder

While pregnant and parenting, Angeline spent 10 months caring for her mother, Lupe, during her glioblastoma diagnosis.

She lived the compression of time, the sudden immersion into new language, urgent decisions, and the expectation to function before feeling fully oriented.

She saw how much effort families pour into researching, organizing, and supporting one another, and how little structure exists to help them make sense of it.

With a background in early-stage technology and product strategy, she became focused on the gap between information and implementation. She’s dedicated her focus to helping families.

Ember grew from that conviction.
