I am all about optimizing human connection and experience through creativity, integrity, authenticity, nuance, empathy, and a systems mind-set. As founder and CEO of Light10 LLC, I work with a highly creative and flexible team to connect healthcare professionals with cutting-edge easy to use optical medical devices.
I leverage my Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering and over 15 years of diverse industry experience in medical device product development to support and guide multinational companies (Fortune 100 – 500), startups, and academic institutions alike to realize their most optimal business strategies, designs, and tangible products. I seek out synergy in everything I do to make the biggest impact while putting people first.
My skillset bridges hard and soft, leveraging a multidisciplinary network of engineers, designers, experts, and thought leaders to zoom in and out of macro and micro-level problem solving. I lean into connectivity and technology fusion to creatively foster human-centric innovation and that 1+1 = 3 effect. Emotion drives our purpose and desire for meaningful impact while objective scientific principals and experience guide our execution.
