Houston, TX22y exp

“Medtech-focused venture builder with experience as a VC venture partner, family office investor, venture studio COO, and repeat founder (Techstars Boulder alum). Currently incubating two medtech deals with a VC fund, applying a rigorous diligence process spanning KOL interviews, regulatory/reimbursement strategy, manufacturing sourcing, GTM/competition analysis, and exit/acquirer milestone mapping before company formation or fundraising.”

“Entrepreneurial healthcare executive who led major growth at CAN Community Health (1,800% over 6 years) and launched an in-clinic pharmacy model (partnered with Maxor, expanded to three pharmacies) that ultimately generated about half of CAN’s $435M revenue. Brings hands-on experience raising capital, building detailed budgets/ramp-to-breakeven plans, and executing privacy-focused care delivery for HIV patients.”

“Operations and org design leader with experience at Vital Farms (rapidly growing B Corp) helping leadership evolve from a flat structure to a scalable business-unit model. Known for culture-aligned operating systems (Galbraith Star model, Levels of Work, decision-rights mapping) that materially improve speed—e.g., 40% faster decision cycles and 25% faster product launch cycles while cutting meeting load by ~1/3.”
