I’ve been studying patterns of influence in healthcare for more than 15 years. At Humana, my team created the healthcare industry’s first social analytics tool. At W2O, I created the MDigitalLife analytics platform, linking the digital footprints of over 1M healthcare people and organizations around the world. And at HealthQuant, we’ve created a Physician Influence Model that’s truly worthy of the digital age. For pharma and medical device companies, that means that I can help you understand exactly which doctors, HCPs and researchers you need to work with - and WHY - aligning the strength & network of each individual doctor to your specific business objectives. For hospitals and health systems, that means that I can help you to optimize referrals, recruitment and reputation among the right external physicians - by strategically leveraging the networks of your own clinicians.I’m dedicated to data-centered innovation in healthcare. Having worked in leadership positions with companies across the spectrum in healthcare, I help healthcare companies (and companies that serve them) build and implement data strategies focused on the creation of products and services that enhance the value of - and in some cases commercialize - their data assets.I'm a strategic advisor to dozens of the largest and most successful healthcare companies in the world, including hospital systems, health insurers, pharma/biotech manufacturers, medical device companies, health IT companies, and consumer health companies. I'm a regular public speaker, and my work has been featured in numerous top-selling business books by authors such as Charlene Li (“Open Leadership”); Bill Taylor (“Practically Radical”) and Larry Weber (“Everywhere.”) and in publications such as Forbes, Health Affairs, Business Insider, KevinMD, MedPage Today and Medical Marketing and Media. In May 2018, I was the winner of both the Innovation Catalyst award (Medical Marketing & Media Magazine) and the Elite Tech-Know Geek award (PM360 Magazine). I host the DataPoint healthcare data & analytics podcast, and am a member of the advisory boards of the Mayo Clinic’s Social Media Network, the South by Southwest (SXSW) interactive conference and the Dell Medical School’s Texas Health Catalyst incubator program.My clients have included Amgen, Principia Bio, Kaiser Permanente, Genentech, GE Healthcare, MD Anderson Cancer Center, Mayo Clinic, Duke Health and Aon.Specialties: Physician Influence/Network AnalyticsNew product innovation and developmentData strategy, integration, analysis & commercialization
