ABOUT
Since childhood, I've been inspired by a genuine passion for innovation and an enduring commitment to improving the world around me. This drive led me into the field of medical informatics, where I’ve had the privilege of engaging in pioneering work, honing a broad spectrum of skills, and collaborating with exceptional professionals across healthcare. My journey has been defined by a commitment to transforming healthcare through cutting-edge technology, from implementing electronic medical records to developing GPT applications and advancing telemedicine initiatives. Every challenge is an opportunity, and I strive to deliver solutions that enhance patient care, streamline workflows, and bridge clinical and technical insights. These experiences have not only fostered my professional growth but also enriched my personal life with meaningful relationships and unique insights that fuel my dedication to healthcare innovation.
As a pediatrician and healthcare executive, I am proud to be the first in North America to have dual fellowship training in clinical and biomedical informatics. My leadership journey includes serving on the executive committee of the Council for Clinical Information Technology (COCiT) section of the American Academy of Pediatrics and authoring six books on leadership, AI in healthcare, and pediatrics.
In my role as an executive physician leader, I focus on translating Clinical Informatics, Digital Medicine, and Enterprise Data assets into tangible value for patients and providers. This mission entails strategic planning, budget oversight, and operational optimization across the healthcare system.
With years of experience in Healthcare IT, I’ve contributed to lean-based system design and implementation, specializing in workflow analysis, EMR optimization, and mobile healthcare solutions. My commitment lies in elevating EHR performance to respect and enhance clinical workflows.
My passions include lean management in healthcare, quality improvement, and increasing access to care in underserved areas. I believe deeply in the potential of technology and innovation to create a more accessible, effective healthcare landscape for everyone.
