Fractional Chief AI Officer for Healthcare
Deploying AI safely in regulated environments
I help healthcare organizations move AI from prototype to compliant, production systems quickly and responsibly without the cost or risk of a full-time AI executive.
HIPAA-first. Hands-on. Outcome-driven.
We'll assess what's blocking production AI and what can realistically ship in the next 90 days.
No pitch. Just a focused working session.
Who I Help
I partner with:
Engineering and data teams that need senior AI leadership and architectural direction
Founders and CEOs seeking a trusted, hands-on AI executive
Health tech startups (Seed to Series C) scaling AI, data, and platform capabilities
Provider, payer, and digital health organizations deploying AI in regulated workflows
What I Do
Fractional Chief AI Officer for Healthcare and Regulated Environments
I provide executive-level AI leadership for organizations that need clear ownership, governance, and execution without hiring a full-time AI executive. I help teams move AI from prototype to compliant, production systems, while ensuring technology decisions support real business and clinical outcomes.
AI Strategy and Execution
I help organizations define where AI should deliver value and where it should not, then lead execution to make it real. This includes establishing AI governance and guardrails, identifying high-impact use cases, and delivering clear 30, 60, and 90-day execution roadmaps focused on production, not experimentation. The emphasis is practical and accountable: shipping AI safely, responsibly, and at scale.
Healthcare AI Solutions
I design and implement production-grade AI workflows embedded in real healthcare environments, including clinical documentation improvement, HCC and coding support, HEDIS automation, guideline-grounded summarization, and outcomes analytics. All solutions are built with a strong focus on safety, accuracy, regulatory compliance, and seamless integration into clinical and operational workflows.
Engagements often expand to include data platform modernization and architectural leadership as required to support production AI.
Why Teams Work With Me
Hands-On AI Leadership With Executive Accountability
I operate at both levels, owning AI outcomes end to end. I design production AI architectures, build and validate solutions, debug pipelines, and tune models, while also providing senior-level leadership across AI strategy, governance, compliance, and long-term technical direction. Teams get clear ownership, not just advice.
Deep Healthcare and Regulated AI Expertise
I've built HIPAA- and FedRAMP-compliant platforms, population health and outcomes models, FHIR-based longitudinal records, HEDIS quality frameworks, and AI-driven CDI and HCC workflows. I understand the clinical realities, regulatory constraints, and infrastructure required to deploy AI safely in real healthcare environments.
Pragmatic, Production-Focused Execution
I don't deliver slide decks and disappear. I deliver AI systems, architectures, and operating models that teams can run in production. Everything is grounded in real-world constraints, safety requirements, and measurable business and clinical outcomes.
Senior Capacity Without Consulting Overhead
You work directly with me. When additional capacity is needed, I bring in trusted senior engineers and specialists to support delivery. This provides executive-level execution without the cost, friction, or dependency of a large consulting firm.
Let's talk.
If you're navigating AI adoption in a regulated healthcare environment and want experienced, hands-on leadership to move from experimentation to production, I'd be happy to talk.
