Our Story

We've been the new hire, the trainer, and the manager scrambling to get someone ready by Monday.

QuickRamp was started by Helen Zhu, PA-C. We built this because we lived the problem: disorganized onboarding, lost institutional knowledge, and the constant cycle of training someone new only to start over six months later.

Co-Founder & Clinical Lead

Helen is a Physician Assistant with 10+ years in medicine across four practice settings — from the operating room at UCSF to primary care clinics serving 22+ patients a day. She's onboarded new staff, trained medical assistants, and managed multidisciplinary teams. QuickRamp is built from everything she's learned about what makes onboarding work — and what makes it fall apart.

Why I built QuickRamp

“At every clinic I've worked at, onboarding was the same story — someone hands you a badge, points you to a computer, and says 'shadow Maria today.' Two weeks later you're expected to run a full patient load. I've been that new hire, and I've been the one scrambling to train someone when Maria leaves. The knowledge always walked out the door. I built QuickRamp so it doesn't have to.”
