I am an equitable systems transformation strategist with 20+ years of experience across a variety of sectors. I believe in creating community-driven solutions that end harm and generate massive prosperity among communities who have been ignored or pushed to the margins.Most recently, I founded and led the nat'l Strategy Practice at Nerdery, where I ran five teams: product innovation, insights strategy, business consulting, experience strategy and business analysis. My work led to our firm's national recognition in Gartner and Forrester in 2019 & 2020, as well as my individual recognition in the business & technology innovation sectors in our region in 2019 & 2021.Before that, my career was a rapid growth sprint from strategy & operations consulting to M&A, and from corporate strategy to new digital products & services. Today, I leverage this background to create radical equity in multilevel systems, like healthcare and philanthropy.Prior to consulting, I spent roughly half of my career in biotech R&D and population health. Topics I worked on included opioid neuroreceptors, pancreatic stem cells, cancer biology, hydrocephalus, drug eluting polymers, vascular grafting, emerging infectious disease epidemiology, global maternal/child health, and solid organ transplant biostatistics.My work experiences include:- Building a business case for a digital mental health platform for a $14B int'l healthcare system- Creating and running a joint digital CX innovation studio with a $6B+ healthcare system- Developing an IoT-based strategic pivot for a $2B+ industrial filtration manufacturer- Building a complete strategic vision pivot for a $13B+ healthcare incumbent facing imminent disruption- Managing a $20M+ innovation investment portfolio to improve population health- Managing implemention of a global financial analytics platform across 18 countries for a $32B+ biopharma- Delivering M&A transaction advisory (buy- & sell-side) for multiple deals, serving financial & strategic clients in manufacturing, healthcare, pharma and med tech- Providing operational excellence consulting in FP&A, analytics, human capital, & strategic transformation projects across startups, Fortune 50, & Middle Market clientsOutside of work, I enjoy time with my family, soccer, urban farming, and serving on the Fairview Foundation's Board of Directors and, formerly, the City of Saint Paul's Planning Commission.I am fluent in Spanish, Bangla, & Arabic.* * *StrengthsFinder 2.0 Assessment Top 5 Themes:Relator | Empathy | Strategic | Futuristic | Individualized
