My Role as a Faros Health Advisor

‍

With years of experience building technology solutions, I offer expertise to assist the technical and product teams in developing a secure and impactful product that will fill a critical gap in healthcare.

Some of the Best Advice I've Received

‍

I've been fortunate to have great mentors and leaders. One of the best pieces of advice I've received is to stay resilient and persistent. In product management, there are many ups and downs. Resilience in the face of challenges, learning from failures, and persistently pursuing your goals with unwavering determination are key to overcoming difficulties in both business and life.

My Vision for Faros Health

‍

I envision a future where patients have true transparency into healthcare costs as a standard, not an exception or privilege. With Faros, patients have a transparent view of all costs for their entire episode of care, along with an understanding of quality and patient experience. This information empowers patients to better advocate for their care journey and become active, informed consumers of healthcare.
