How I work
Clinical instincts, product decisions.
Physiotherapy taught me to assess before treating, to respect the person doing the hard work, and to measure what matters. These are the principles I still bring to every roadmap.
01
Identify the right problem first
In the clinic
The assessment always comes before the treatment plan.
In product
Everything downstream depends on framing the problem correctly. I spend disproportionate time here.
02
Fit for purpose, not comprehensive
In the clinic
A good exercise program has five exercises the patient will do, not twenty they won't.
In product
Less is more. The best clinical software asks for exactly what the protocol needs.
03
Risk proportionality
In the clinic
Triage exists because not every case is urgent.
In product
Not every risk deserves equal weight, and treating them as if they do is its own kind of failure.
04
Human in the lead
In the clinic
Tools support clinical judgment; they don't replace it.
In product
Treat AI like a sharp intern: it drafts, a person reviews, and the decision stays human.
05
Do no harm to the data
In the clinic
Primum non nocere.
In product
Audit trails, validation and Part 11 compliance aren't overhead. They're how trust in results is earned.
06
All four voices in the room
In the clinic
Patients, clinicians, administrators and payers see the same care differently.
In product
Patients, sites, sponsors and data managers all shape a protocol. I design with all four.
Working with me
- I'll ask “who does this help, and how will we know?” early and often.
- I write things down: problem statements, decisions and trade-offs, so no one has to guess.
- I'd rather ship something small that a site coordinator loves than something big no one uses.
