Chief Executive Officer / Co-Founder
CurrentAt Penguin Ai, we are solving healthcare’s $1T/yr administrative problem. After years of leadership roles at organizations like Kaiser Permanente, UnitedHealthcare, and Optum, I saw firsthand how generic platforms from companies like GCP, Snowflake, and Databricks fell short of solving healthcare’s complex needs. That's why I launched Penguin Ai—a purpose-built platform for healthcare, using healthcare-specific models that tackle the administrative inefficiencies Payers and Providers face every day.
