Why subscribe to Health Tech Happy Hour?
In today's rapidly evolving healthcare landscape, staying informed isn't just about reading press releases or attending the same conferences where people recycle buzzwords about digital front doors and value-based care. You need deep, nuanced insights from both the trenches, the inside, and top research. As a founder, researcher, policy expert, and most importantly, as a caregiver who has navigated the system's complexities firsthand; I write Health Tech Happy Hour to provide this critical analysis.

Why Trust My Perspective?
As co-founder and president of Avenue Health, a pioneering clinical services company, I’ve actively built and scaled innovative, technology-enabled care delivery models across seven states. Academically, my research and policy work has been published in leading journals including NEJM Catalyst, The Journal of Nursing Administration, OJIN: the Online Journal of Issues in Nursing, Health Affairs Forefront, and the American Journal of Nursing. I've authored two books on healthcare innovation, including A Virtual Care Blueprint (Routledge), and serve on multiple healthcare boards and committees:
D.C. Health Information Exchange Policy Board (Mayoral Appointee)
Consumer Technology Association's Health Technology Policy Workgroup
Commission for Nurse Reimbursement and Research Board
Connected Health Initiative Steering Committee
But perhaps most importantly, I spent eight years as a family caregiver for my mom, witnessing firsthand how our healthcare system succeeds – and where it fails. This experience drives my passion for healthcare transformation and shapes my unique perspective on patient-centered innovation.
What Makes This Publication Different?
