Cohere Health

I'm a data scientist with deep experience in healthcare analytics and financial services…

My introduction to the healthcare industry started at a young age while growing up with family in the field of medicine. That early introduction to the industry led me down a path filled with opportunities to help others as I nurtured a strong interest in business and innovation. ✔ Throughout my career, I’ve led and built organizations that utilize the latest clinical trends and cutting-edge technology to introduce new solutions that lower the costs of healthcare for consumers and providers. That has included taking products from concept to commercialization; turning vision into value to drive growth. ✔ My leadership style was influenced and has been driven by building and growing organizations that balanced growth and profit depending on company stage. That requires leadership that clearly articulates vision and how individuals can personally contribute. I strive to empower and engage while providing resources and tools for success and metrics that drive accountability. ✔ Broad operations skills strengthened through leadership roles with P&L ownership and operational oversight of business functions. Nothing prepares you more for leading an organization than having built successful businesses from the ground up. As an entrepreneur, I co-founded a couple of startups that quickly demonstrated value while empowering consumers to evaluate healthcare alternatives and make informed decisions. ✔ Expertise in the full business development cycle, from product ideation and design to venture capital fundraising, business development, commercialization and eventual high ROI sale.
