Our team

Eva Scarano
Founder & Executive Director
8 years in sales, marketing & management

Eva Scarano is transforming the Lyme and tick-borne disease (Lyme+) epidemic from an invisible illness into a visible movement. After eight years of living with chronic Lyme, Eva knows the isolation of being dismissed, disbelieved, and misunderstood. She founded LymeLnk to change that.

With a BBA from the Ross School of Business, six years in tech marketing, and a Master’s in Strategic Design from Parsons, Eva is turning a stigmatized epidemic into an opportunity to educate.

Eva is on a mission to make Lyme+ visible–so others don’t have to face it alone–or at all.
