Anthony Kinslow II
Lecturer
BioAnthony, the Founder and CEO of Gemini Energy Solutions, is an expert in energy efficiency analytics and building science and a research-oriented practitioner who utilizes best practices from around the world to develop innovative solutions for his clients. His company's focus is reflective of Anthony's mission in life — making a meaningful impact on mitigating global warming. In Gemini, Anthony has created a vehicle to engage, educate, and energize underrepresented minority communities and the underserved small commercial building market in energy efficiency. Under Anthony’s leadership, Gemini is implementing strategies for overcoming cultural and socio-economic barriers that prevent the vast majority of Americans from being aware or engaged in energy efficiency. Operating nationwide, the company also partners with municipalities — such as San Francisco International Airport and Memphis, TN — to support their efforts to meet their climate change goals and increase economic resiliency through energy efficiency.

Alaina Kipps
Clinical Professor, Pediatrics - Cardiology
BioDr. Kipps grew up in Santa Cruz, California and completed her medical degree at Harvard Medical School in 2003. After general pediatrics residency at Stanford, she completed pediatric cardiology fellowship at Boston Children’s Hospital from 2006 to 2009. After three years on faculty with University of California, San Francisco she was recruited back to Stanford in 2012 to become the medical director for acute care cardiology (2013-2021). Since 2021 she has focused on QI for the ACCU and heart center, and has served as the ACCU local improvement team medical director since 2013. In 2014 she co-founded the Pediatric Acute Care Cardiology Collaborative (PAC³) with Nicolas Madsen and co-directed this since inception to spring 2026. PAC³ has 50 participating centers, a registry since 2019 with >150,000 encounters, and is the academic society for the ACCU subspecialty. Her academic focus is in clinical effectiveness and quality improvement science, and she completed her Masters of Science in Epidemiology at Harvard School of Public Health in 2016. Her other significant interest is in teaching, mentorship, and coaching. She is the co-director of the Pediatric residency program scholarly concentration in Quality Improvement, co-leads the Pediatric department peer scholar community (in QI), and has served as a residency coach since 2020.
