Summary
Customer-obsessed product management professional with proven expertise in planning, designing and launching innovative product/service offerings, identifying and solving key customer challenges, and working cross-organizationally. Passionate about healthcare and digital health. From healthcare and technology markets, I bring a unique blend of business and technical savvy from achievements in upstream product management, data analytics, downstream product marketing, strategic consulting, and sales enablement. Most recently at Providence Health & Services I led research, planning, development and launch of new ambulatory services products and business models in collaboration with leaders of six diverse service lines. These ranged from physical therapy, sleep disorder services, sports medicine, diabetes management and diagnostic imaging. Previously I was responsible for leading the marketing efforts at Providence Health Plan, focused on the large group health plan segment, telehealth, and healthcare reform. Prior to that, for DAT (TransCore) I drove increased penetration of their on-line marketplace and analytic solutions into 3rd-party transportation software suites. Within an agile environment, I was the web-services product owner which enabled real-time integration. My first healthcare experience was with WebMD, where I led outbound product marketing activities for for their SaaS-based digital health solutions, including new product positioning, messaging and launch, market and competitive research, and sales tool development.
