Summary

  • I am an ABR Certified Radiologist and an ABII Certified Imaging Informaticist with a strong background in leadership. Over the last decade, I have demonstrated my skill set by forming high performing teams in Data Science, Imaging Informatics and Innovation with a focus on:

    -- Patient Experience and Journey
    -- Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence
    -- Critical Results Reporting
    -- Mobile Emergency Response
    -- Imaging Informatics and Telemedicine Services
    -- Staff Q&A

    I lead system builds with a mindset towards interoperability and an intense focus on iterative and agile methods. Aside from development work, I have been an integral decision making member on several internal physician councils within healthcare organizations.

    I have evangelized the use of best of breed technology solutions and as a leader, I have been entrusted in managing multi-talented and diverse teams of engineers, developers, and PACS admins hailing from all over the world - from Spain to Ghana.

    My team philosophy is simple : Delivery is the currency we live by and we exchange it for value in an organization.

    As a clinician, I provide radiology interpretation services for multiple states and hospitals throughout the United States in a multitude of modalities and subspecialized areas.
