About
Clinical Care, life science, HealthTech/InsureTech startup and government sector leader with nearly three decades of experience (leading organizations ranging in size from 10 to over 1,000 staff, with P&Ls from $10MM to $100MM). Providing a solid track record of achievement as chief executive and market strategist in multiple industries – from life science/clinical research to ambulatory care, from healthcare/rehabilitation practice to venture-backed HealthTech startups. Skilled and entrepreneurial business executive with a reputation for building companies from concept to commercialization, strengthening financial performance and brand equity, creating innovative programs, generating, adjudicating and measuring go-to-market strategy, streamlining operations and oversight across vast geographies, and providing long-term organizational health and stability. Uncanny ability to ‘boil down’ complex operational challenges into clear-cut strategic initiatives (with flexible tactical features) that are readily understood, actionable and measurable throughout the entire enterprise. Specialties: Executive leadership, sustainability and performance improvement, strategy/planning & execution for myriad science & health-related industries, regulatory approvals (specifically US FDA), management and leadership of complex systems and organizations, advocacy - particularly in disabilities space, global health and international development, pharma and biotech research as well as market analysis, healthcare technology and instrumentation, and disease vector and population health research. As if I could add anything else to the afore-highlighted, I am an artist and unpublished fiction writer and poet (covert word nerd).Company Spotlight in Tech
