Bio

I build and help lead companies at the intersection of biotech, healthcare, venture, and applied technology. My work has focused on translating ambitious science and technical ideas into real businesses, from therapeutics and infection prevention to strategic growth, fundraising, and public market execution. I am the founder of Huron Biosciences, co-founder of Zephyr Venture Partners, and have helped build and operate companies, including Samata Therapeutics and Illumisoft Technologies. Across these roles, I have worked on scientific strategy, company building, partnerships, and scaling innovation to create meaningful real-world impact. I am especially interested in ideas that can improve human health, resilience, and the systems we rely on every day.
