Gastroenterologist | Medical Director, Oshi Health | LinkedIn Top Healthcare Management Voice | Forbes Health Contributor

I’m a board-certified gastroenterologist and the Founding Medical Director at Oshi Health, where I’ve had the privilege of helping shape and expand a virtual-first GI care model now serving patients in all 50 states. Working alongside an incredible team, I’ve contributed to building scalable clinical pathways for IBS, IBD, and other gut conditions—anchored in team-based care, empathy, and measurable outcomes.

With 28,000 + followers, I’m among the most followed gastroenterologists on LinkedIn, where I regularly share insights on topics including:

• IBS & the gut-brain connection — emotional triggers, stress, and personalized care
• Digital health innovation — virtual-first models, AI in GI, and wearable integration
• Colorectal cancer screening — rethinking pathways and improving early detection
• Reducing unnecessary testing — CTs, labs, and low-yield procedures in IBS
• Value-based gastroenterology — lower cost, better outcomes, patient experience
• Health plan integration — improving patient access to covered virtual GI care
• Microbiome & nutrition science — evidence-based takes on fiber, probiotics, and gut myths
• Healthcare system reform — tackling disparities, burnout, and reimbursement models
• Behavioral science in GI — the role of habit loops, psychology, and coaching in digestive health
• Virtual care leadership — insights from helping scale a 50-state GI operation

As a LinkedIn Top Voice, I collaborate across digital health, clinical care, and health plans to drive forward-thinking solutions in gastroenterology—without waste, and with humanity.

Let’s connect if you’re working at the intersection of GI, tech-enabled care, or value-based delivery models.

Growth-stage operator at the intersection of health, performance, and business.

Over the past 7+ years, I’ve worked inside fast moving, mission-driven companies — evolving from marketing into partnerships, revenue strategy, and customer success — while helping teams scale from early traction to durable growth.

Most recently at Finding Mastery, I helped scale the partnerships function during a growth phase:
• Grew brand partnerships revenue 3x
• Launched three new revenue channels
• Closed the company’s first two year-long strategic contracts
• Shifted deals from short-term to long-term, improving predictability and retention

I’m comfortable stepping into ambiguity, moving quickly, and building structure where none exists. My passion for health and human performance is personal; diagnosed with a rare autoimmune disease (Dermatomyositis) at age 8, I reached remission by 11, then went on to compete as a Division-1 athlete.
