About Me
My career has been a journey of transformation—from fixing cars to saving lives and now shaping the future of healthcare through technology. Starting as an automotive technician, I developed critical problem-solving skills and precision that became the foundation for my unexpected pivot into nursing nearly two decades ago. Through years of frontline clinical experience, from post-surgical care to tele-health, I discovered my true calling at the intersection of patient care and digital innovation. Today, I leverage my unique perspective as both a seasoned clinician and digital health specialist to bridge the gap between technology and real-world healthcare challenges. My ability to adapt, learn, and thrive across diverse environments has been the cornerstone of my success, whether in operating rooms, virtual care platforms, or regulatory committees. I'm driven by a profound commitment to empowering healthcare providers through technology that enhances patient outcomes while making clinical workflows more intuitive and efficient. By combining hands-on nursing expertise with digital health transformation skills, I'm dedicated to creating a healthcare ecosystem where human-centered care and cutting-edge technology work in harmony.
