In every role, the hard part has been getting a working prototype approved, fitted into how people work, and owned by someone. Built and shipped three products: NextConsensus (tracks how far medical evidence has moved ahead of a named institution’s position), Ambit (agent capability and authorization mapping, MIT-licensed), and Stims (a browser-native MilkDrop-style visualizer). Refract supplies the change-tracking beneath NextConsensus; Fast Harm measures how far an AI error travels before a correction catches it, and Whether turns macro conditions into a weekly operating call.

• Founded and lead NextConsensus, which measures how a medical claim’s standing moves in the evidence and in official sources, ahead of a named body — FDA, a guideline committee, a payer — changing its position. Forecasting when that body will move is a research program: each forecast is registered and frozen before the outcome is known, then scored against public resolution rules, and none has resolved yet. Built for market access, health economics and outcomes research (HEOR), and regulatory teams working against dates that do not move.
• Built Stims as a standalone engineering product: a browser-native MilkDrop-style visualizer with 1,787 presets, direct .milk compilation, live editing, WebGL2/WebGPU rendering, in-browser recording, and a projectM reference harness.
• Built Refract (AGPL-3.0), an open-source engine that replays a source’s revision history into byte-reproducible change events: when a claim first appeared, whether its hedging strengthened or weakened, whether it survived reversion, what editors disputed. A daily bot runs it in production; the published test set is 16,146 events.

Co-founded and led a physician financial-wellness company across product, funding, and go-to-market. The product helped doctors with contracts, debt, and the move from training to practice.

• Built the Contract Analyzer: automated clause-level analysis flagging risky terms in physician contracts. A JD wrote the legal content, and the product stopped at analysis without giving legal advice.
• Raised $240K in initial funding and grew to 1,200+ physician users and a 700-member community, then wound the company down in 2024, with funding and engagement both short, rather than rebuild it around an employer or a financial institution as the paying customer.
• Convened a physician medical advisory board to establish the clinical review protocols every contract analysis had to clear.

Early product hire. Led Surgery, Everyday Urgent Care, Behavioral Health, and Oncology Care from the first activated member through 200+ FTEs — the period in which the company reached a $1.6B implied valuation.

• Led the Cancer & Decision Support pod: shipped CancerCare v1, a symptom-checking triage tool for adults and children that inferred the care pathway from reported symptoms, with Healthwise content and an in-app second-opinion flow that handed off automatically to a nurse line.
• Designed automated routing rules tied to clinical roles across four specialty-care programs. The system assigned each case to the right clinician, while nurses and navigators worked from a shared record during live care coordination.
• Managed two product managers across four specialty-care programs.

Directed digital product 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.

Joined as a Product Manager, was promoted in July 2016, and left running user growth and the mobile portfolio. Nine product launches across four years, teams of three to ten, and founding product lead for Doximity Dialer.

• As founding product lead for Doximity Dialer, proved over a weekend that outbound calls could carry an unverified caller ID, and launched on that route deliberately: Doximity’s physician identity verification stood behind the number, with no clinical decision riding on the call. Partnered with legal and hospital IT to clear EHR integration, including Epic Haiku. Dialer now carries more than 300,000 calls on an average workday, across 250+ hospitals and health systems.
• Grew Talent Finder revenue 60% YoY to $5M across 1,000+ physician recruiters and 400+ paying clients, reaching 1.8M monthly impressions. The team: four web engineers, a UX designer, a data scientist, and a QA engineer. Built the enterprise marketing platform used by 6 of the top 10 U.S. research hospitals to identify likely referrers for their specialty physicians.
• Ran a national physician compensation survey: 35,000+ unique, ID-verified respondents in one year. Directed the data-science team that turned it into a predictive salary model by U.S. county and medical specialty, trained on 25+ public and private data sources.

Led post-install success for two outpatient software clients and six patient web-portal clients through root-cause analysis, re-implementation, and custom Caché development where the base product couldn’t reach. Co-lead for CMS PQRS.

• Converted a 477-bed regional health organization from cancellation risk to reference account by resolving 95% of the outpatient issue list through root-cause analysis, re-implementation, and custom plug-in development.
• Deployed MyChart web/mobile and EpicCare Link interoperability tools for a 514-bed research hospital, taking a 134-year-old health system online for the first time.
• Co-led the five-person CMS Physician Quality Reporting subject-matter group and created its escalation path for regulatory issues and critical software bugs, from discovery and triage through customer notification.
