ABOUT
From a young age, I've been driven by a deep passion for innovation and a ceaseless desire to improve the world around me. This passion led me to the field of medical informatics, where I've had the privilege of exploring unique opportunities, acquiring a diverse set of skills, and collaborating with professionals across the healthcare spectrum. My journey has been marked by a commitment to transforming healthcare through the application of innovative technologies, from implementing electronic medical record systems to pioneering telemedicine projects. I approach every challenge with enthusiasm and creativity, striving to deliver solutions that enhance patient care and streamline clinical workflows. My experiences have not only shaped my professional growth but have also fostered exceptional relationships and unique experiences that continue to drive my passion for healthcare innovation.
As a Pediatrician and Healthcare Executive, I am proud to be the first in North America with double fellowship training in both Clinical and Biomedical Informatics. I have had the honor of serving on the executive committee of the Council for Clinical Information Technology (COCiT) section of the American Academy of Pediatrics.
In my role as an Executive Physician leader, my focus is on transforming healthcare delivery. I strive to translate Clinical Informatics, Digital Medicine, and Enterprise Data and Analytics assets into measurable value for consumers and clinical providers. This involves strategic planning, budgetary and operational oversight.
With extensive experience in Healthcare IT, I have contributed to various lean-based system workflow designs and implementations. My current work involves clinical workflow analysis, implementation of EMR and telemedicine technology across the enterprise and the county, and designing mobile healthcare applications. I am dedicated to optimizing EHR performance and ensuring that clinical workflows are respected by IT solutions.
I am deeply interested in lean management in healthcare, improving healthcare value, quality, and safety, and increasing access to care in underserved areas. I believe in the power of technology and innovation to make healthcare more accessible and effective for all.
