View LinkedIn ProfileExecutive Overview
I lead technology where architecture and engineering meet, turning high-stakes AI from promising concept into reliable enterprise capability.AI accelerates the work. Pattern recognition and judgment determine the decision.More than two decades in enterprise technology, primarily in healthcare, have taught me to recognize the structural patterns behind stalled transformation: data without usable context, fragmented ownership, governance introduced too late, or platforms unable to withstand production demands. I connect those signals to business economics, regulatory exposure, and engineering capacity, then focus the organization on the constraint that matters most.I operate from strategy through execution. I set enterprise technical direction, shape cloud, platform, data, and AI strategy, and build the organizations capable of delivering it. I have led distributed architecture and AI-focused engineering organizations of more than 50 people, established an enterprise architecture practice that became the foundation for a broader AI program, and helped convert complex operational challenges into nine-figure savings.I use AI directly to accelerate research, synthesis, architecture analysis, prototyping, and engineering delivery. It increases the speed and breadth of what my teams and I can produce. My judgment determines which output is credible, which assumptions need to be challenged, and which path the enterprise should take. I remain accountable for the call.
