AI & Data Leader
for Sustainable Health
Bridging AI, technology, and regenerative systems to drive real-world impact in healthcare, food systems, and sustainability.
Let's talk
Origin Story
Helping visionary leaders leverage AI into build practical, sustainable, high-impact digital ecosystems. AI is a tool, not a solution—systems thinking is the value-driver.
1. Tech Leadership Experience
For over a decade, I've built and scaled SaaS products across industries—from generative design and IoT to martech and AI-driven platforms. I thrived in high-uncertainty environments, solving complex problems where technology wasn't just an enabler, but a fundamental shift in how industries operated.
But something was missing.
2. The Problem
As I deepened my focus on healthcare, food systems, and sustainability, I saw a recurring problem: technology was being built in silos—disconnected from the realities of the people it was supposed to serve. AI promised to transform industries, but most implementations were either hype-driven or completely misaligned with the real-world challenges.
3. One Health CTO Solution
The truth is, you don't need another AI agent or a tech gimmick—you need digital infrastructure that actually supports human health, food security, and sustainable ecosystems.
That's why I started OneHealthCTO—to help founders, investors, and ecosystem leaders bridge the gap between technology, regenerative systems, and business strategy.
I am a high-EIQ tech product entrepreneur who delivers ROI to your organizations by starting and sticking to value-based care for patients and providers.

FAQ
What do you actually do?
I help founders, investors, and policymakers cut through AI hype and build practical, scalable digital infrastructure for healthtech, food systems, and regenerative industries. My work goes beyond a typical “fractional CTO” role—I design ecosystems that integrate AI, data, and real-world operations to create sustainable, high-impact businesses.
Depending on the engagement, I might:
Define your AI & tech strategy—so you don’t waste time or money on the wrong solutions.
Build digital ecosystems—connecting hospitals, food systems, and regenerative supply chains.
Advise founders and investors—on product positioning, AI, and due diligence for high-leverage decisions.
Help scale companies responsibly—with the right balance of technology, funding, and operational execution.
Why work with you instead of hiring a full-time CTO?
A traditional CTO hire is a major commitment—costing $250K+/year and requiring deep technical vetting. Many early-stage companies hire the wrong CTO, leading to delays, wasted capital, and technical debt that cripples growth.
By working with me, you get:
Senior, high-impact strategic guidance—without the cost of a full-time exec.
Faster decision-making, product clarity, and AI strategy—to avoid costly pivots.
Ecosystem connections—bridging tech, healthcare, policy, and regenerative systems.
For many companies, a fractional strategic leader is the right first step—ensuring you have a clear roadmap before committing to a full-time hire.
What’s the difference between a “Fractional CTO” and a traditional CTO
A Fractional CTO (fCTO) delivers the same strategic value as a full-time CTO, but on a flexible, retainer-based model. Instead of leading day-to-day engineering teams, I focus on high-level technology strategy, AI integration, and ecosystem alignment.
I don’t just “manage developers”—I help you:
Define the right AI & digital roadmap before investing in expensive tech.
Avoid hiring mistakes that lead to wasted capital.
Connect with investors, policy leaders, and partners to accelerate success.
How do you compare to a traditional tech consultant?
Most consultants operate in silos—focusing only on software development or short-term tech fixes. I take a systems approach, bridging:
Technology & AI – Ensuring your tech strategy is practical, scalable, and impact-driven.
Business & Funding Strategy – Helping you position for investors, partnerships, or acquisition.
Ecosystem Building – Connecting healthcare leaders, food system innovators, and policymakers.
I’m not here to sell you more technology for the sake of it—I focus on what actually moves the needle.
I’ve tried outsourcing before, and it was a disaster. How do I avoid that again?
Many founders fall into the trap of outsourcing development without a solid strategy, technical oversight, or execution plan.
That’s where I come in:
I define the right digital roadmap first—so you don’t waste money on misaligned development.
I act as your strategic partner—bridging tech, funding, and operations for long-term impact.
I prioritize clarity, transparency, and ecosystem integration—so your tech stack isn’t just “built” but actually drives business results.
Who do you typically work with?
I work with founders, investors, and ecosystem leaders in healthtech, regenerative agriculture, and AI-driven sustainability. My ideal clients are:
Visionary founders who want strategic AI & tech guidance—without committing to a full-time CTO too soon.
Investors & policymakers who need due diligence and clarity on AI, digital infrastructure, and ecosystem plays.
Growth-stage companies that need technical strategy, partnerships, and execution without tech debt.
How much does your service cost?
Unlike traditional tech consulting, my work delivers ROI by reducing long-term costs, avoiding wasted spend on misaligned development, and ensuring scalable, AI-driven growth.
How does a CTO contribute to product leadership?
A product-oriented CTO drives execution through product leadership. Hence why a niched CTO strongly familiar with a domain is much more valuable than a generalized one. In addition to articulating the right forest from the trees in technical strategy—they shape the strategic vision of the product by aligning:
Technology with market needs – Ensuring you’re building the right thing at the right time.
AI & data strategy – Leveraging technology to create a competitive moat.
Stakeholder confidence – Making sure your tech roadmap reduces risk and increases operational value.
Long-term scalability – Avoiding costly mistakes in infrastructure, hiring, and execution.
If your product strategy feels uncertain, fragmented, or tech-heavy without a clear market fit, I help refine it into a high-leverage, scalable approach.

What makes you different from other “Fractional CTOs”?
Most fractional CTOs focus only on software development—I take a holistic approach that integrates:
AI & Digital Strategy – Ensuring technology serves a real business purpose.
Ecosystem Thinking – Connecting the dots between health, food, policy, and sustainability.
Business Model Alignment – Making sure your digital infrastructure is actually monetizable and scalable.
Technology should serve a mission—not the other way around. If you’re scaling a meaningful company, I help ensure the tech, funding, and business strategy align for long-term success.
