Experience

1. Head of Product Management

   Amalgam Rx

   Sep 2020 — Present · Wilmington, DE, US

   I am excited and honored to lead product management for AmalgamRx, a digital health technology company focused on chronic disease, the area of greatest impact on US health economics and most actionable via value-based care business models.Per the CDC, chronic disease accounts for 75 percent of US health care spending. From a CMS perspective, it accounts for an even higher percentage: 96% of Medicare and 83% of Medicaid spending. 45% of Americans suffer from at least one chronic disease, and more than 25% have multiple chronic conditions. Evidence is growing that the presence of one chronic condition increases the risk of developing others.AmalgamRx creates FDA-regulated “digital medicines” to improve patient self-management and support provider decision making, to cause the behavioral change necessary to impact chronic diseases. AmalgamRx is developing multiple digital health solutions across the chronic disease spectrum, applying core platform functionality to a range of chronic conditions. Mobile technology and UI / UX functionality comprise the “delivery mechanism” for their digital medicines, while personalized interventions and analysis provide the “mechanism for action”.AmalgamRx is led by a team of successful serial entrepreneurs and pioneers in the field of digital medicine. AmalgamRx partners with life sciences companies and healthcare organizations, and has initial offerings in diabetes and immunology. I’m joining a team of physicians, behaviorists, technologists, data scientists, and commercial experts who understand the full range of solution development from conceptualization to commercialization.
