Advisory

CTO-level help for the work between strategy, software, operations, and revenue.

The work is not just building features or writing strategy decks. It is translating business constraints into product architecture, technical systems, operating cadence, and proof a buyer or board can believe.

Fractional CTO / CPO leadership

Executive-level product and technology help for founders and healthcare operators who need architecture, prioritization, vendor choices, hiring judgment, and execution discipline.

Healthcare platform architecture

Provider-network systems, payer workflows, behavioral-health access, claims and payment operations, compliance posture, and platform integrations built for trust and operational reality.

AI-enabled operating systems

Practical AI workflows that reduce administrative load, improve throughput, and make clinical, operational, and customer-facing teams more effective without turning the product into a gimmick.

Product-to-market translation

Positioning, enterprise GTM support, paid-pilot readiness, sales proof, and product packaging that connect what the platform can do to what a buyer will understand, believe, and fund.

Selected work

The through line: build the system, earn trust, then scale it.

The proof stack spans zero-to-one product creation, acquisition, healthcare infrastructure, product leadership, enterprise adoption, and measurable operating improvements.

TheraMatch and TPN.health

Co-Founder; VP Provider Networks & Technology

Co-founded a clinically driven behavioral-health matching platform and brought it into the TPN ecosystem. Current work spans provider-network data systems, healthcare EDI, payments, payer requirements, and compliance-ready infrastructure.

One to One Health

VP Product & Engineering; Chief Privacy Officer

Built the product and engineering function, launched virtual direct-primary-care capabilities, negotiated vendor savings, and delivered an AI-enabled clinical workflow that reduced clinician time per encounter by 20%.

BlueCross BlueShield of Tennessee

Senior / Group Digital Product Manager

Led digital platforms across member, broker, employer, administrator, and sales workflows, including personalization, search, chat, CMS, mobile, and connected-device strategy.

PerfectServe

Product Marketing Manager, Product Manager, Consultant

Contributed to growth from $2M to $40M in annual revenue through product, implementation, adoption, enterprise admin controls, and health-system rollout work.

Paragon Truss and CraftingCopy.ai

Advisor; fractional CTO / GTM partner

Helped operators clarify product direction, enterprise sales motion, AI workflow strategy, and technical execution. Paragon closed the largest enterprise contract in company history during the engagement.

Bring the workflow that is too important to leave messy.

If the work sits at the intersection of healthcare, operations, AI, provider networks, customer experience, and revenue, it is probably the right kind of conversation.
