I build AI-enabled healthcare platforms that scale regulated products and improve portfolio performance.

United States
Message

I've led digital, AI, and enterprise platform transformation at The Cigna Group, translating healthcare, regulatory, and technology requirements into scalable products. I currently drive AI and GenAI enablement across the Individual & Family Plans portfolio while retaining ACA program ownership.

I delivered GenAI automation that reduced plan identification from four months to under two hours and established PHI compliance guardrails adopted as an enterprise template. I also scaled ACA membership to 776K covered lives across 11 states and helped move the business to its first profitable year.

Previously, I governed portfolios supporting 2,500 people and up to $34M in annual investment, improving productivity by 77% through Agile KPIs, governance, and Jira-based reporting. My background spans product delivery, Lean Portfolio Management, SAFe transformation, software development, and healthcare technology.
