Currently,
I'm working on something new in the startup space again!
In the past,
Contract work for Peak Vascular Access, a mobile nursing company specializing in the placement of PICC and Midlines. Alongside a friend, we scoped, planned, and built their flagship product from scratch: the Peak Mobile Platform. The platform is an SMS-based chatbot named Luna that centralizes intake of new job requests from various facilities and subsequently triages those new jobs to nurses in the correct area, including scheduling and coordination until job completion.
