Connected health · Medical devices · Clinical technology
I turn healthcare complexity into solutions clients buy and services they value.
I’ve been the founder building the technology, the client selecting it, and the executive accountable for delivery. I bring the domain knowledge solution architects depend on—and the experience to turn that knowledge into revenue through paid discovery, solution definition, and delivery leadership.

Start with your challenge
A few conversations we might have: the problem you’re facing, the experience I bring, and where I would start.
Study access
I’ve led loaner-device services, global wireless connectivity, and participant support. In the DDC workflow I describe, participants logged into a web app and could use different compatible devices; free study loaners provided an access option.
Explore the experienceVendor delivery
I’ve led IQVIA vendor management, Dexcom licensing negotiations, and development of an internal alternative that strengthened vendor accountability. That alternative served its strategic purpose without entering production. I would start with the delivery gap and the options we can realistically execute.
Explore the experienceSolution definition
At Ultragenyx, I built a clinical technology organization connecting product, engineering, quality, informatics, and service operations. I bring those perspectives into the conversation so the solution accounts for the people, workflows, and responsibilities around the technology.
Explore the experienceHealthcare connectivity
I bring 20 years of healthcare connectivity experience, with expertise in eSIM versus physical SIM cards. I can help you examine those options in the context of the devices and healthcare service you need to support.
Explore the experienceClinical workflows
I designed and deployed Rarify for patient and site data capture, decentralized research, and longitudinal monitoring. I would start with the participant and site workflows, then define the technology and support needed to make them work.
Explore the experienceCommercial services
My experience spans enterprise commercialization, technology partnerships, and the client side of selection and delivery. I would start with the client’s problem and define a clear, paid scope for discovery, solution definition, or delivery leadership.
Explore the experienceChina market access
I bring experience accessing the Chinese market via Compaq, DEC, and Motorola, plus a joint venture with Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications (BUPT).
