Fractional COO building AI-enabled operations systems, including controls that helped recover over $100K in Medicaid claims in six weeks.
What I'm looking for
At APA International Group, I overhauled claims and clinical documentation against a $1.2M Medicaid receivable, helping recover over $100K in the first six weeks. I built denial-management and payer-escalation systems, then embedded AI-enabled quality controls to catch problems before claims reached payers.
Through Scale with Mahalath, I’ve rebuilt operations across more than 15 industries, including cutting client onboarding from six weeks to one at Ecommerce Future USA. I founded the Human-First AI Accelerator to help teams complete operational work with AI, and I’m now looking to go deep with one company in a COO, VP, or Director role focused on operations, operational excellence, or AI enablement.

Then I build the entire accelerator around what they actually need.
During those 3 days, teams aren't watching a presentation. They'
