Healthcare IT and data analytics director leading enterprise applications strategy.
What I'm looking for
I’m a healthcare IT and business technology executive with 20+ years leading enterprise applications, vendor strategy, and cross-functional teams in HIPAA-regulated Medicare and Medicaid environments. I’ve owned application development, data processing, analytics, and ETL integrations, and I lead end-to-end product management for enterprise ERP roadmaps aligned to executive steering teams and corporate goals.
I’m especially effective in complex system integration—directing ERP consolidation through custom integration architecture, negotiating vendor contracts, and eliminating redundant licensing to save $500K annually. I also lead interoperability work using HL7/FHIR to integrate claims, provider, and member data, and I drive automation through AI/ML to reduce recurring manual effort and improve operational reliability.
