Hi all,
I’ve worked in the digital tech space for 10 years starting in the role of a Product Manager. Currently based in the UK as a Product Lead at a UK-based healthcare scale-up (3+ years) that operates across Europe. During this time at this org, I built and manage all the clinical products (digital prescriptions, digital signatures, digital consultations), powering digital healthcare experiences for various strategic partners (ex: two of the largest high-street pharmacy chains, NHS pilot), manage their operational products, and also helped launch the company’s first consumer-facing app in Germany (the company’s largest market).
Personal statement
My personal statement will address my strong interest in building digital health products that focus on preventative healthcare (as most current healthcare players offer reactive care or sick care) and institutions such as the NHS are in massive need of and open to proactive care solutions.
