About

Physicist turned computational biology and translational AI leader with 15+ years of experience across academia, biotech, and early-stage company building.

I partner with biotech and pharma teams at critical points in their R&D journey — providing fractional computational biology leadership, shaping discovery and portfolio strategy, and helping teams turn complex multi-omics, genetic, and phenotypic data into clearer scientific and investment decisions.

My experience spans target discovery, platform development, precision medicine, and translational research across cardiometabolic disease, cardiovascular disease, and neuroscience. I have built and led computational platforms, developed AI/ML-enabled discovery strategies, and worked across scientific and organizational boundaries to move programs from data and hypotheses toward actionable R&D decisions.

I help build AI-driven platforms that convert complex multi-omics, phenotypic, and clinical datasets into decisions that shape drug programs and investment strategy — from early discovery through preclinical development.

Keynote speaker at Bio-IT World, Festival of Genomics & Biodata, Drug Discovery Strategy Summit, and Single Cell OMICS Conference. Invited speaker and fireside chat guest on AI/ML in Biotech at the Swiss Consulate Boston (2025).
