Jaclyn Schiff

Jaclyn Schiff is Head of Marketing Communications at FastWave Medical, a pre-commercial medtech company developing next-generation solutions for calcific artery disease. She brings a journalist's eye for storytelling to the complex world of medical devices and clinical innovation.

Before joining FastWave, Jaclyn built and sold PodReacher, a B2B content agency she founded in 2018. The company specialized in transforming podcasts, webinars, and video content into high-value written assets for clients across healthcare, technology, and B2B. After six years of leading a fully remote team serving 120+ clients, PodReacher was acquired in 2024.

Her career has taken her from newsrooms to nonprofits to entrepreneurship. She worked in the newsroom at KFF Health News in Washington, D.C., led programming for healthcare executives at Modern Healthcare, and served as communications director for global health organizations including the International Society of Travel Medicine. She was selected for a global health journalism fellowship in Zambia, where she reported on infectious disease and public health challenges.

Her entrepreneurial journey has been featured in Indie Hackers, Starter Story, and on dozens of podcasts.

Jaclyn lives in Austin, Texas, and is living proof you don't need coffee to build a business — she didn't start drinking it until her mid-30s.
