Yash Jain
MBA, expected graduation 2026
BioYash is an MBA candidate at the Stanford GSB (Class of 2026).
Prior to Stanford, he worked at McKinsey & Company and later at Careem (an Uber company), where he helped build and scale Careem Pay, one of the fastest-growing fintech platforms in the Middle East. His work focused on strategy, digital payments, and launching new products across emerging markets - specially in the Middle East.
At Stanford, Yash is exploring new ventures at the intersection of technology and entrepreneurship. He is driven by a broader goal of creating lasting impact - building institutions, products, and communities that leave things better than they were and open doors for people who may never have believed those doors were meant for them. -
Jlateh Vincent Jappah
Ph.D. Student in Health Policy, admitted Autumn 2021
Master of Arts Student in Economics, admitted Spring 2024BioJlateh Vincent Jappah is a PhD Candidate in Health Policy (Health Economics) at Stanford. His research interests intersect between methods that enhance access to the social determinants of health and the provision of appropriate and timely healthcare services, with the aim of reducing avoidable morbidity and mortality and improving overall health and well-being, especially for underserved and vulnerable populations.
Jappah contends that although health insurance and access to healthcare services are important elements in the health production function, other structural and socio-economic factors collude to either foster or erode health. As such, he has a keen interest in public policy, economics, medicine, global public health, maternal and child health, and a curiosity to understand those socio-political and institutional forces that shape health and well-being. He is also interested in machine learning and artificial intelligence in healthcare.
In addition to the United States, Jappah has lived and worked in several countries in Africa, Asia, and Europe.
He is bi-lingual (English and Russian). -
