Tell us about your career journey that led you to Nabla. What experiences have most shaped your leadership style and perspective?
I've spent 25 years in technology, with most of that time focused on healthcare. Throughout my career, I've helped build and grow innovative technology companies, primarily in growth, sales, and business development leadership roles.
What has shaped my leadership style most is a relentless focus on customers. The best companies I've been part of are obsessed with solving real, tangible, and practical customer problems, and that philosophy has stayed with me throughout my career. In addition, I really aspire for the people who work with me to make their experience with me and our company the shining light in their careers, where they're most engaged, learning, and growing at a very fast pace, and having fun along the way. The best people want to be challenged and grow and have impact. And I’ve learned over the years that a company is only as good as its people, and creating an environment where the best people want to work is the most effective thing you can do.
What ultimately led you to Nabla? What made this opportunity different from others?
A lot of things excited me about joining Nabla, but it really starts with the team and its obsession with delighting customers and clinicians.
That customer-first mentality is at the core of the company. And that’s not some cliché. Nabla invested deeply in understanding clinicians and building the right product from the beginning. We actually had our own clinic several years ago where we deployed the products that gave us a unique level of user empathy. And for many years, the company was really only focused on product. Instead of building things that would drive the most revenue, we built things that customers wanted most. In enterprise healthcare, that's very rare, and it’s an approach that’s still ingrained in our culture. So many companies depend primarily on sales or go-to-market execution for growth. Nabla has built its success on creating a product that customers genuinely love, and that’s a huge advantage.
Building a culture around that approach gives us an incredible foundation for the years ahead.
Healthcare AI is evolving quickly. Why do you think this is the right moment for Nabla?
There are several reasons I'm confident Nabla is positioned to lead the next phase of healthcare AI.
First, that customer-first mindset influences everything we do, from how we build products to how we support customers.
Second, Alex [LeBrun] has created an extraordinary vision for where AI is going. As our Co-founder, Executive Chairman, and Chief Artificial Intelligence Officer, he'll continue shaping our long-term AI strategy while also leading AMI Labs alongside Yann LeCun, the former head of AI at Meta. Nabla will benefit greatly from the frontier innovation happening at AMI.
The work they're doing around world models is an exciting evolution beyond today's large language models. It's about AI that understands more than language, incorporating things like patient physiology, imaging, and other real-world context that are critical in healthcare.
That combination of customer obsession, product excellence, and long-term AI innovation gives Nabla a tremendous opportunity.
What do you personally hope to bring to Nabla through its next stage of growth?
My background has been building high-growth organizations while staying relentlessly focused on customers and building highly engaged teams.
Nabla already has exceptional assets: a world-class product, delighted customers, and an incredibly talented team. My role is to help scale those strengths.
We'll continue to prioritize customer success, maintain our high-integrity approach to the market, and preserve the culture that has made Nabla successful. At the same time, I believe we'll continue growing rapidly, expanding our reach, and bringing our technology to more clinicians across the country.
As we talk about that next stage, healthcare organizations are moving beyond AI pilots and into enterprise adoption. What do you think separates organizations that will succeed from those that won't?
The organizations that succeed will stay focused on solving meaningful problems for clinicians and patients.
Healthcare doesn't need technology for technology's sake. It needs AI that helps clinicians spend less time on administrative work and more time caring for patients and doing what they’re great at.
As you got to know Nabla, what impressed you most about the team, product, or culture?
The culture immediately stood out.
We have an incredible team in Paris, another outstanding team in New York, and a fantastic team across the US. I recently had the opportunity to spend time with many members of the team in both countries, and what impressed me most was how engaged and committed everyone is to the mission. We have a really unique diversity of thought at Nabla. It’s a huge advantage.
Bringing those teams together at our recent company-wide offsite in Portugal reinforced just how special the culture is. People genuinely care about each other, believe in the mission, and are excited about what we're building together.
