Zvenyach, a registered nurse with a Ph.D. in health policy who teaches nursing students at Georgetown University as an assistant professor, spent the past decade working first on Capitol Hill and then for a pharmaceutical company. Loughlin was an executive at Epic Systems Corp. until May 2020, where she’d launched five products in eight years on the clinical informatics team. Before that, she’d been a front line nurse. The two have been neighbors and close friends for years.
