Building tools for questions where the answer matters.

My current work through n61 focuses on practical AI products built around evidence, privacy, provenance, and human judgment.

Data & decision systems

Two decades of work integrating fragmented data across research, clinical, and operational environments to support real-world decision-making.

Research shaped the way I build.

My background is in computational epidemiology and applied public health research. Across more than 100 scholarly and technical publications—including 42 peer-reviewed publications—my work has focused on extracting defensible conclusions from complex, imperfect data.

That same discipline now informs my work in data systems and AI: know where the evidence came from, distinguish what the data support from what they do not, and make uncertainty visible.

Evidence before inference. Human judgment remains essential.

One career, viewed from different angles.

I started as an epidemiologist asking questions about populations and health. Increasingly, those questions became problems of data: how information is collected, connected, analyzed, interpreted, and ultimately used to make decisions.

That thread has taken me through academic research, healthcare, enterprise analytics, organizational leadership, and now the development of evidence-bounded AI systems through n61.

I am a Fellow of the American College of Epidemiology and hold a PhD in Epidemiology with a cognate in Biostatistics.

Useful problems are usually worth a conversation.
