I’m a scientist and engineer that loves building things that advance medicine and patient care.

In 2019, I co-founded ScienceIO to build language models that understand the nuanced grammar of healthcare. We wanted clinical data to feel less like a wall of noise and more like something you could actually work with. In 2024, ScienceIO was acquired by Veradigm, where I now focus on scaling healthcare AI into real, industrial settings. I write about the ideas work on Substack at Getting Clinical.

I’ve spent my career bringing clarity to complicated systems. As a researcher, I genetically engineered a fruit fly with double the lifespan, derived equations to detect cancer by touch instead of chemistry, and compressed uncertainty in entangled photons.

Eventually, I wanted to build things outside the lab. At Seven Bridges, I worked with the National Cancer Institute to build global-scale data science products. To do this, I needed to learn how to make complex systems feel intuitive. At Foundation Medicine, I built the Real World Data group and, with Flatiron Health, helped create what became the world’s most comprehensive real-world cancer dataset. To do this, we needed to prove the value in integrating clinical and genomic signals. These days, I’m focused on how people and AI can cooperate to improve outcomes at civilization-scale.

I live in New York with my wife, our two kids, and a precocious cavapoo. My favorite meal is two slices of pizza on a paper plate, eaten on a park bench.
