Healthcare and Innovation in New Orleans, Louisiana
Healthcare executive with a strong background in public health strategy, data analytics, and operational innovation. I currently serve as Director of Strategic Initiatives at Ascension DePaul Services in New Orleans, where I lead cross-functional efforts to improve care delivery, population health outcomes, and clinic performance. My work integrates real-time analytics, technology solutions, and value-based care models to strengthen community health systems. I’m passionate about translating complex data into actionable insights that improve access, quality, and equity in care—especially for underserved populations.
Previously, I co-founded and served as CEO of Pine Biotech, where I led global collaborations to advance biomedical data science and education, working with institutions like Tulane University and the Tauber Bioinformatics Research Center. My academic background includes an MBA from Tulane’s A.B. Freeman School of Business and executive training in healthcare economics from Wharton and Penn Medicine. Across roles, I’ve maintained a deep commitment to using data, technology, and strategic leadership to build sustainable, mission-driven healthcare solutions.
