Wojcicki co-founded 23andMe with Linda Avey in 2006. 23andMe is a human genome research company that helps customers understand what their DNA says about their health, traits, and ancestry. In 2018, they raised $300 million from GlaxoSmithKline.
Wojcicki, the youngest of three daughters, was born in San Mateo County, California. Her parents are Esther Wojcicki (née Hochman), an educator of Russian-Jewish descent, and Stanley Wojcicki, a Polish-born physics professor emeritus at Stanford University. Both her parents were educationalist.
When she was two, she learned how to figure skate, and later started playing ice hockey.
She went to study in Gunn High School in Palo Alto, California with her sisters. The school authorities recognised her flair for writing and command over the language due to which she was made the editor of the school magazine ‘The Oracle’. She loved writing about sports and won a scholarship for her contributions.
Anne Wojcicki went on to attend Yale University to study biology. Her interest in sports remained through her university days. She took part in competitive ice skating and played for the university women’s ice hockey team during her youth. She did her BS in biology in 1996 and went on to do research in molecular biology at the National Institute of Health as well as the University of California, San Diego.
