Accelerate Your Growth
Early in my career I was forunate to have been trained at companies like Google, Cisco and McKinsey. And most recently to help build and shepherd LeanTaaS - a unicorn / centaur from the ground up. In the middle I had a series of startup failures and successes. So now I both invest in new projects and help hungry entrepreneurs grow their companies as an active Advisor or Board Member with my "20% time".
HOW I HELP
Advisor, Board Member, Venture Partner
STARTUPS
I help founders and CEOs scale smarter — work through issues addressing product strategy to GTM, to hiring, and improving team dynamics.
Founders / CEOs trust me because I have been in their shoes, both succeeding and failing as an entrepreneur myself multiple times
​
VC & PE FIRMS
I work with investment teams and portfolio CEOs to accelerate execution and uncover what’s really blocking growth (customer focus, GTM, strengthening leadership teams).
I bring founder empathy, operator depth, and strategic edge — unlocking time, traction, and trusted insight across the portfolio.

ABOUT ME
1 Unicorn, 4 Exits
I most recently served as the President and Chief Operating Officer for LeanTaaS for 9 years (2015 - 2024). LeanTaaS is the leading AI / ML based analytics company in healthcare operations, powering over 200+ Health systems and 1000 hospitals and cancer centers across 49 states to improve access and lower costs. Over the 9 years I spent there, the company grew from 0 to being both a "unicorn" and a centaur" and I led a team of over 320 people.
I am the co-author of the book “Better Healthcare Through Math”. Before LeanTaaS, I was Google’s first Head of Product Marketing, and led three successful startups - CEO at Aloqa (acquired by Motorola), VP Products & Marketing at TellMe Networks (acquired by Microsoft) and Founder & CEO at Collegefeed (acquired by AfterCollege).
I graduated with BS and MS degrees in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science from MIT. I started my career at McKinsey & Company and Cisco Systems before joining Google. I have been named by Becker's Hospital Review as one of the top entrepreneurs innovating in Healthcare.
