The Catalyst Difference

Fluent in Both Science and Strategy

Most consultants understand markets. I understand your market. I've spent 25+ years working where hard science meets commercial reality in healthcare.

With a chemistry degree from Caltech and an MBA from UCLA Anderson, I bring something rare to precision medicine and AI health tech startups: the scientific literacy to strengthen your clinical narrative, and the commercial rigor to turn it into a market strategy that moves investors, physicians, payers, and health systems.

CEOs bring me in when they need executive-level strategic thinking without the full-time overhead — and when they need someone who hits the ground running on day one in these markets.
