Most AI products today feel like demos. Impressive technology, unclear value. Amazing capabilities, confusing experiences. I've spent 10+ years figuring out how to fix that gap; how to take breakthrough AI capabilities and turn them into products people actually want to use every day.

Built Abbott's Lingo consumer biowearables division from zero to FDA clearance and market launch; creating an entirely new category of AI-powered biosensors that help people understand and improve their health.
I built and led a cross-functional team of 40 (Product, Data Science, UX, CRM, Hardware, Program Management, Insights) to design, develop, and ship a product that combines continuous glucose monitoring with AI-powered personalization.
What we built:
• AI/ML personalization engine processing millions of glucose readings daily to deliver hyper-personalized health insights and real-time coaching
• Consumer experience achieving >8 app opens/day, 5.5/7 CSAT, and 2x expected LTV
• Product-market fit validated by user outcomes: 9/10 report habit change, 7/10 achieve a health goal
• Growth engine combining direct-to-consumer channels and strategic retail partnerships (Amazon, major pharmacy chains)
The breakthrough: Secured one of the first-ever FDA OTC designations for continuous glucose monitors; unlocking mass-market opportunity and positioning Lingo to win this brand new category.
This role combined the speed and customer-obsession of consumer tech (my Amazon background) with the clinical rigor and regulatory compliance of healthcare, exactly the balance needed for responsible AI product development.
