About

I design and scale biomedical data platforms that enable ambitious science programs to move faster, integrate deeper, and deliver real impact. As Head of Platform at Bridge Analytics — working under the CNS Quest initiative — I lead the development of next-generation neuroscience data infrastructure supporting complex, multi-modal research across neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative conditions.

My work sits at the intersection of informatics strategy, platform engineering, and scientific enablement. I partner closely with computational scientists, clinicians, and program teams to build secure, interoperable environments that unify clinical, imaging, genomics, and sensor data into cohesive analytic ecosystems.

Across nearly two decades in biomedical data, my experience spans human brain imaging, clinical trials, population-scale genetics, and advanced therapeutic platforms. I am particularly focused on how structured knowledge, semantic models, and AI can transform the usability and secondary value of complex biomedical data — building platforms that don’t just store and process data, but actively accelerate discovery, collaboration, and translational impact.
