Experience
Founder and CEO
Jan 2024 — Present · Boston, MA, US
As Founder & CEO of Leaf Guardian, I\'m developing PrevenTherm™, a non-contact, AI-powered thermal monitoring system that detects early pressure injury risks before visible skin damage occurs.In high-risk ICU/med-surg units, current workflows miss subsurface tissue changes during intermittent checks and turning. This often leads to stage 2+ HAPIs, causing patient pain,$20K–$150K+ costs per case, longer stays, and heavy admin/documentation burden, especially on understaffed shifts.PrevenTherm runs 24/7 passively (no wearables, no manual input): thermal imaging + physics-informed AI tracks posture, movement, and subtle early indicators, alerting nurses in real time for precise, timely intervention. It reduces late-stage detections, eases charting, boosts compliance, and supports equity across skin tones, all while freeing nurses for direct care.We\'re solving a preventable $27B+ problem with practical, workflow-friendly tech, not hype.If you\'re a hospital leader, nurse exec, wound care specialist, quality/safety officer, or investor passionate about patient safety, HAPI reduction, and value-based outcomes, let\'s connect.#PressureInjuryPrevention #HAPI #PatientSafety #HealthTech #HospitalInnovation #PrevenTherm #LeafGuardian
