NextConsensus

Decision-relevant lead time on medical authority transitions. Identifies which medical claims are gaining support, persistence, and regulator/guideline alignment — early enough for biopharma Medical Affairs, Regulatory, and Market Access teams to act.

Ambit

A capability graph for agent systems. Models what a combined set of models, tools, machines, and people can actually cause to happen — and keeps capability and authority as separate objects, so a growing action space stays governable.

Refract

Reports what changed and when; deciding whether the change matters is the caller's job. Open-source engine (AGPL-3.0) that produces a complete, verifiable record of every change to a source.

Founder

NextConsensus, Ambit, Refract

2024–present

Founder and product lead building consequential-AI products and infrastructure: NextConsensus (medical authority transition forecasting), Ambit (capability and authority accounting for agent systems), and Refract (deterministic provenance engine).

  • Founded and lead NextConsensus: decision engines tracking medical claim trajectories for biopharma, with each forecast registered and frozen before the outcome is known.
  • Built two open-source engines: Refract (AGPL-3.0), a deterministic change-detection and claim-history engine running a daily production observation bot, and Ambit (MIT), a capability graph that separates what an agent system can do from what it is authorized to do.
  • Developed Ethotechnics, an open framework for AI decision accountability (seven proposed standards mapped against NIST AI RMF, ISO/IEC 42001, and the EU AI Act), and Fast Harm, Slow Repair, an evaluation protocol for error propagation and correction in deployed AI systems.

Co-Founder and CEO

Andwise

2022–2024

Co-founded and led a physician financial-wellness company — product, funding, and go-to-market — focused on trusted decision support for doctors navigating contracts, debt, and the transition from training to practice.

  • Built the Contract Analyzer: automated clause-level analysis flagging risky terms in physician contracts. Legal content authored by a JD; product explicitly stopped at analysis, not legal advice.
  • Raised $240K in initial funding, grew to 1,200+ physician users and a 700-member community.
  • Convened a medical advisory board of over 50 physicians to guide product and content decisions.

Director of Product, Care Experiences

Transcarent

2021–2022

Early product hire. Led product across value-based specialty-care and care-navigation programs — Surgery, everyday urgent care, Behavioral Health, and Oncology Care — from the first activated member through 200+ FTEs and a $1.6B implied valuation.

  • Led the Cancer & Decision Support pod: shipped CancerCare v1, a symptom-checking triage tool (including pediatrics) that inferred the right care pathway from reported symptoms, Healthwise content integration, and an in-app second-opinion experience with automated handoff to Nurse Ally through Consumer Medical.
  • Designed automated routing rules tied to clinical roles across four specialty-care programs — the system assigned ownership of each case to the right clinician, and nurses and navigators shared the same facts during live care coordination.
  • Managed two product managers across four specialty-care programs.

Director of Digital Products & Strategy

CancerCompass / CTCA Marketplace

2019–2021

Directed digital product strategy and platform execution for CancerCompass / CTCA Marketplace, an oncology information and navigation platform serving 30MM annual visitors (CTCA was later acquired by City of Hope).

  • First product and technical hire for a pre-CEO, pre-revenue PE-backed corporate venture, through its growth from 2 to 25 FTEs.
  • Led a cross-functional R&D team of 14 onshore and offshore across three products: the health information site (30MM annual visitors), a hospital digital-marketing platform, and a patient-engagement web app.
  • Reduced bounce rate by 25%, increased chat conversions by 267%, and raised time on page by 40% through iterative multivariate testing.

Venture Fellow

Rough Draft Ventures (now GC Venture Fellows)

2018–2019

Evaluated seed-stage healthcare and deep-tech teams for General Catalyst's student-founder program, building diligence frameworks for technical and regulatory risk.

  • Built diligence frameworks evaluating clinical evidence strength, regulatory pathways, and EHR integration feasibility.
  • Designed product governance templates for early-stage teams navigating FDA, HIPAA, and healthcare procurement.
  • Benchmarked healthtech portfolio milestones to standardize risk assessment across investment rounds.

MBA Associate

Red Sea Ventures

Dec 2017–Jan 2019

Sourced and diligenced seed and Series A companies at a three-person, $50M thesis-driven fund — met 100+ founders, wrote memos, presented recommendations to partners, and developed the firm's investment philosophy on the consumerization of healthcare.

  • Mapped investment thesis memos into post-close operating milestones and quarterly board reporting.
  • Structured portfolio reporting systems tracking clinical user retention and enterprise pilot progression.
  • Screened seed opportunities against regulatory, technical, and market landscapes.

Fellow

InSITE

2018–2019

Graduate-student fellowship in the New York cohort, placing fellows as consultants to early- and growth-stage startups.

  • Consulted to early- and growth-stage startups on product, regulatory, and market strategy.
  • Application included a full investment analysis of Phosphorus (NGS/liquid-biopsy diligence): business-model teardown, FDA regulatory-risk assessment, and comparable-company analysis.

Head of Mobile Products & Growth

Doximity — Hiring & Hospital Marketing; Search & User Growth; Mobile Apps

2013–2017

Joined as a Product Manager and left running two product areas — user growth and every mobile app — after a July 2016 promotion. Nine product launches across four years, teams of three to ten, and founding product lead for Doximity Dialer.

  • Founding product lead for Doximity Dialer — proved over a weekend that outbound calls could carry an unverified caller ID, then chose legitimate telco attestation over spoofing because spoofing would never pass hospital IT security review. Partnered with legal and hospital IT to integrate with EHR systems including Epic Haiku and clear institutional security reviews. Dialer now powers 300,000+ daily visits across 200+ health systems.
  • Grew Talent Finder revenue 60% YoY to $5M across 1,000+ physician recruiters and 400+ paying clients, earning 1.8M monthly impressions, managing a team of four web engineers, a UX designer, a data scientist, and a QA engineer — and built the enterprise marketing platform used by 6 of the top 10 U.S. research hospitals to identify likely referrers for their specialty physicians.
  • Grew across three product roles: founded the search team (a half-FTE effort turned into a team of six, one of three company-wide annual goals, and +62% engagement in a single quarter), then ran two full teams across search and user growth, then took over all mobile and user growth — six engineers, two QA, and a mobile UX designer against quarterly goals set with the Chief Product Officer.

Clinical Quality Analyst (pro bono)
