Building a new wearable category centered on place-anywhere muscle sensing.

Confident Pose focuses on EMG-based wearables that surface real-time muscle effort, with early products aimed at training intensity and first-of-its-kind posture guidance.

• Power: tracks real muscle effort while you train.
• Posture: device concept built around muscle sensing rather than passive correction alone.
• App experience designed to show live muscle signals and posture data in real time.

Deputy Director, Senior Advisor, and Consultant across devices and AI for maternal and newborn health.

This body of work centered on bringing AI-assisted ultrasound into routine maternal care, including pregnancy risk assessment workflows in India and broader investment work spanning device hardware, AI models, software, clearances, and policy for portable imaging, maternal care devices, and digital health.

• Worked on AI-enabled ultrasound for pregnant women, including hardware, software, clearances, and policy constraints around gender determination restrictions.
• Led and advised device and AI portfolios spanning Philips Lumify, Butterfly Network, Caption Health, acquired by GE HealthCare, Sibel Health, Masimo, Ilara Health, and Helium Health.
• Focused on technologies that could work across both low- and high-income care settings.

Product leadership for a new ECG device and its route to market.

At AliveCor, the work spanned the product definition of a next-generation ECG device and the surrounding system needed to make it viable in practice, from clinical workflows to reimbursement pathways.

• Defined requirements for the device itself and for the adjacent clinical service layer.
• Connected hardware planning with commercialization and payer strategy.
• Built on AliveCor’s broader mission of making medical-grade ECG more accessible outside traditional care settings.

Sensor systems and heart-rate module delivery for running-focused smartwatches.

This work translated sensing R&D into shipped wearable products. The RunIQ project sat inside a broader Intel wearables effort that combined algorithms, industrial constraints, and field testing into consumer-facing fitness devices.

• Delivered the sensor and heart-rate module for New Balance RunIQ.
• Managed the team responsible for algorithms, user testing, electrical design, and optical design.
• Helped build the path for future health applications beyond simple activity tracking.

Concept creation, prototype electronics, system integration, and path to high-volume product.

This project began as a concept for no-charge-needed heart-rate headphones and evolved into a full commercial wearable. It combined sensing, embedded systems, app integration, and partner execution into a category-defining product.

• Created the original product concept and designed the prototype electronics and software application.
• Presented the device with Intel leadership at CES 2014 as part of Intel’s wearables push.
• Led electrical engineering and coordinated manufacturing, firmware, app, and cross-functional delivery through launch.
