RESUME
About me
A medical doctor by background, I am an experienced healthcare leader and director in the healthcare and technology industries, working at the intersection of clinical, commercial and technology fields. I have expertise in leading the design, implementation and commercialisation of digital health solutions, and supporting healthcare organisations with service and digital transformation. I hold a particular interest in the application of artificial intelligence and machine learning in healthcare. I have built, led and managed global cross-functional teams and worked in the UK NHS and across international healthcare systems for global healthcare and technology organisations.
​
In my current role as an Associate Partner for Healthcare at IBM, I am responsible for working with healthcare clients to tackle complex problems and transform the healthcare experience leveraging IBM's technology capabilities in AI, Analytics, Hybrid-Cloud and Blockchain, and consulting services expertise.


I am the Co-Founder and Managing Director of Doctorpreneurs, a not-for-profit organisation and one of the world's first and largest communities for medical innovators and entrepreneurs. I provide independent digital health advisory services to startups, VCs, corporates, and accelerators. I am also a Fellow at the UK Faculty of Clinical Informatics.
​
Prior to joining IBM, I have been a practising medical doctor and have held roles as the Clinical Lead for Digital Health at Bupa, an international healthcare insurance and provider organisation, and as a Clinical Fellow to the NHS National Medical Director.
​
Throughout my career I have been a coach and mentor supporting individuals from diverse backgrounds with personal and professional development. Click here for more about coaching services.
