I lead healthcare and HCM products spanning claims adjudication, payroll, AI, and fraud detection.
What I'm looking for
At CoverGo, I lead an end-to-end Claims Processing System as the accountable production owner, designing automation rules for authorization and claims adjudication decisions.
Previously at ADP, I owned the US Payroll Processing System for mid-market and enterprise clients across North America. I reduced payroll processing errors by 30% through automated validation rules and exception-handling workflows.
At Optum, I built an ML-driven Appeal Prediction Engine that reduced appeal volumes by 22% and won 1st Place at the Optum AI/ML Hackathon 2020. I also led product work for claims adjudication, fraud detection, and payer payment capabilities.
Across healthcare, HCM, and InsurTech, I translate complex business challenges into data-driven products, from functional briefs and roadmaps to production issue resolution and stakeholder alignment.
