Health-tech nerd & photographer




I am the CTO of Origin, working with an amazing team to revolutionize women's MSK, with national telehealth, 20+ physical clinics across the US and awesome digital interventions.

I spend my days building companies that use technology to make the world a better place: designing agentic solutions to real world problems, building distributed engineering orgs, developing technology investment strategies, working on infrastructure and application architecture, and building healthcare compliance programs. Here are some of my CTO musings.

I also run a consulting / advisory company for healthcare companies looking for technology transformation, Palmatum.

Formerly Director of Engineering at Virta Health; Head of Security and Operations at Amino (exit acq: Capital Rx); Head of Technical Operations at SalesCrunch (exit acq: ClearSlide).

I live in Toronto, Canada with my incredibly talented wife Eva. When I pull myself away from a computer I'm into street and forest photography - mostly on film, hiking, and playing Super Nintendo games.
