What I'm looking for

I want to lead digital health programs that scale virtual care, drive system integration, and improve patient access while mentoring teams and delivering measurable outcomes.

I am a digital health program leader with experience managing provincial virtual care programs, patient registries, and systems integrations. I direct cross-functional teams—product, engineering, clinical, data, and operations—to deliver complex digital health initiatives on time and within scope.

My career highlights include leading change management for provincial eCRM and telemedicine rollouts, developing monitoring and evaluation frameworks, and authoring policies and SOPs that improved compliance and patient satisfaction. I have overseen UAT/QAT cycles, interoperability projects between EMRs/EHRs and patient portals, and data-driven performance dashboards.

In operational roles I have driven training and adoption programs that materially improved user uptake — including workflow and cloud-based enrollment innovations that tripled patient affiliation rates. I routinely negotiate with vendors, engage clinicians through co-design, and translate frontline insights into strategic recommendations for digital transformation.

I hold an MSc in Health and Public Service Management and professional certifications in Scrum and change management, with ongoing pursuit of PMP and Lean Six Sigma Black Belt credentials. I seek roles where I can lead service modernization, improve patient access, and scale digital health solutions across organizations.
