I’ve always been drawn to figuring out how things work.
That curiosity has taken me across a range of environments, from early internet infrastructure to startups, enterprises, and now digital health. I started in tech as a systems engineer, working on systems that had to run reliably at scale. One of the most formative experiences was being part of the team that scaled the World Health Organization’s web infrastructure during the SARS epidemic to support a 20x surge in traffic.
Over time, that curiosity extended beyond systems into products and businesses. I’ve worked across startups and large companies, and eventually co-founded Blumio, a medical device company developing a wearable blood pressure sensor. We raised $5M in funding and took the company through acquisition by CardieX (now CONNEQT Health)), where the technology continues to be developed and commercialized.
Today, my work is focused on vascular aging and how earlier, more precise cardiovascular measurement can change outcomes at both the individual and system level. At CONNEQT Health, I work across product, clinical, and go-to-market to build digital health businesses. In parallel, I’m pursuing a PhD at the University of Cambridge focused on the health economics of vascular aging, and I’m part of the Presidential Leadership Scholars Class of 2026.
Today, my work is focused on vascular aging and how earlier, more precise cardiovascular measurement can change outcomes at both the individual and system level. Alongside my role at CONNEQT Health, I’m pursuing a PhD at the University of Cambridge, examining the health economics of vascular aging and the downstream implications for clinical decision-making, reimbursement, and long-term healthcare costs. In parallel, I’m part of the Presidential Leadership Scholars Class of 2026, where my project centers on translating evidence around vascular aging into scalable, real-world adoption across healthcare systems.
Outside of work, I spend a lot of time snowboarding and traveling to snowboard, usually in places I’ve never been before. What I enjoy most is the challenge of getting better. It’s about refining technique, understanding how your body moves, and reacting quickly to what’s in front of you. It forces you to stay present in a way that’s hard to replicate elsewhere.
I also have a long-standing interest in wine, which led me to build a recommendation system that became part of the Hello Vino app. The experience of building and taking a mobile app to market became the basis for both my MBA thesis and my book, The Evolution and Dynamics of the Mobile App Economy: Strategies for Innovating and Marketing Mobile Apps.
