"Healthy People, Strong Communities" with Marty Cho, CEO and Co-founder of Mechi

From his youth in Cameroon to building a career in the United States as a nurse practitioner, school board trustee, and entrepreneur, Marty Cho's journey reflects a powerful throughline: well-being is foundational to learning, leadership, and community. As CEO and Co-founder of Mechi and a former trustee of the Jefferson Union High School District Board, Marty connects his clinical experience with his work in governance—advancing a clear idea he calls "Movement as Medicine," and showing how physical health, emotional awareness, and prevention directly influence performance, decision-making, and outcomes in public systems. In this conversation, he invites leaders to see wellness not as an add-on, but as a practical strategy for stronger schools, better decisions, and more connected communities.
