Product leader · hands-on builder · Chicago · open to relocation
I build new products around emerging technical capabilities.
Product leader, founder, and hands-on builder: biomedical engineering and molecular-biology research, then 14 years taking products from ambiguous problem to adoption and scale across clinical care, oncology, decision support, and emerging AI systems.
The identity layer I built for Doximity Dialer still carries more than 300,000 calls on an average workday across 250+ health systems — 9 years after I left.
I work best where the product category is still emerging — formulating the technical object that doesn't yet exist, building it far enough to test whether it works, and bringing senior product judgment to what to build next. I build independently when that's the fastest way to learn, and ship through cross-functional teams. See where I'd fit →
Current work
Primary builds: healthcare intelligence, agent permissions, and browser graphics.
- Whether Operating posture — turns macro and capital signals into weekly decisions and clear review triggers for founders.
- Refract Change detection & provenance — a daily observation bot and 16,146 manifest-backed events beneath evidence sources.
- Fast Harm, Slow Repair Agent error evaluation — a benchmark protocol measuring how far AI mistakes propagate through tools and what remains wrong after correction.
What I'm brought in for
I originated Doximity Dialer, led R&D at CancerCompass, and co-founded Andwise. Andwise settled the user question and could not settle who would pay — a decision that lived in the architecture, not the roadmap. In 2024 I shut it down rather than build that company. Since then I have built the systems myself when that is the fastest way to learn.
The same three steps, each time:
- Enter before the roadmap exists
- Build an unproven idea far enough to learn whether it holds
- Bring senior judgment to what happens next
Selected work
The patient sees the office, not the cell phone
A physician calling a patient had two bad options: the hospital desk phone, or a personal cell that showed 'Unknown Caller' and gave the number away for good. I built the identity layer that let the call come from their own phone while the patient saw the office number — so it got answered, and the cell stayed private.

Four specialty programs on one routing architecture
High-acuity cases — Surgery, Oncology, Behavioral Health — were stalling in exception queues, and the default was four separate products. I put all four on one routing architecture tied to clinical accountability, so a nurse and a navigator worked from the same facts and every case had an owner. Slower to build, faster to scale.

Reading the contract before the physician signed it
Early-career physicians were signing employment contracts with no unbiased read of what was in them. Andwise's software read the contract, flagged the clauses worth arguing about, and stopped there — it did not advise — with a named reviewer on a deadline behind every analysis before the physician acted.
