Summary

With close 30 years of experience at Yorktel and Caregility, I have been a driving force behind pioneering telehealth, healthcare IT, managed services, visual communication and collaboration solutions. Our focus is on helping patients to connect with clinicians anywhere anytime, empowering workflow, enhancing user experience, and increasing productivity to drive business relevance and impact. We believe that technology should re-humanize communication and be accessible to all. As part of Yorktel's vision and strategy team, I regularly engage with business leaders, customers, manufacturers, and industry analysts to predict future needs and identify emerging technologies. I am particularly excited about the potential of AI, machine learning, and API integration in digital health and healthcare IT. If you have any questions or seek insights in this field, please feel free to reach out. As a persistent leader with a strong desire to lead and grow organizations, I bring strategic planning skills, problem-solving abilities, and effective communication to the table. My deep understanding of business principles, project management expertise, and collaborative nature are complemented by my relentless work ethic.

  • Company Overview: www.yorktel.com
  • I'm very proud to work at Yorktel, for a couple of very important reasons. First, we're seen as thought leaders as we're dedicated to adding real value to a business.
  • Second, for our longevity. The company has successfully been at the forefront of technology for over 30 years; I've been here for over 20. As most of our senior leaders have also been with us for a considerable number of years, communication between us is effortless because we've grown to know each other so well.

  • Regularly talking to executives within Yorktel, such as operations and marketing, I ensure that we're supporting customers and their solutions at all levels of the business.
  • I also act as a product visionary, looking three years ahead to the next generation of products with a 180 degree view of the industry players, to ensure that we continue to meet the business needs of our customers.
  • So, it's a busy role, but I have extremely capable people surrounding me, and I give the team leaders guidance and empower them to make decisions.

  • I have developed a novel PMS system using steady state, time-domain and frequency-domain NIR technique to obtain tissue optical properties. The system can efficiently eliminate the phase-amplitude cross-talk along with a new algorithm to calculate (mu) a and (mu) s' of strong scattering media we measured. It can be applied in clinic and measure the hemoglobin saturation change in tissues such as breast tumor/cancer, brain tumor/cancer, etc.
