Laxmi Wordham

Laxmi Wordham joined The Michael J. Fox Foundation in April 2011. In her role as Chief Digital Officer she is responsible for the Foundation’s online presence as well as developing technology tools to better serve the Foundation’s mission. Technology and digital media are core elements of the Foundation’s strategy to accelerate Parkinson’s research by engaging more widely with, and bringing together, the research community, physicians, health professionals and most important, people with Parkinson's and their families. We believe that raising the Foundation’s profile with a broader audience online will help us more efficiently reach and mobilize highly engaged stakeholders who are more likely to feel personally vested in helping speed progress toward a cure. Prior to joining the Foundation, Ms. Wordham held various roles at LexisNexis over six years including Vice President Open Web Strategy and Vice President Martindale-Hubbell, where she launched an online business and community to serve the legal profession. Before LexisNexis, Ms. Wordham was a management consultant with Booz Allen Hamilton, working mostly with consumer goods and media companies. Ms. Wordham holds an MBA from Harvard Business School and a Bachelor’s Degree in engineering from Princeton University.
