Today is my last day at Origin and what a five and a half years it's been.
When I joined, Origin had one clinic in Brentwood. We now have 20+ clinics, 100+ providers, and a platform that has grown from seed to Series B. I'm incredibly proud of the role I played in building the foundational infrastructure that made that scale possible: flexible enough to evolve with every expansion and new business line, yet robust enough to hold the complexity.
Some highlights I'll carry with me:
- Built our proprietary home exercise program clinical builder and patient app (which I recently refactored and incorporated the backlog of feature requests myself in Claude Code)
- Led a full EHR migration and new clinical and patient experience buildout in 3 months — with zero downtime
- Led a complete overhaul of clinical documentation that improved charting NPS by over 70 points
- Touched everything from data analytics in BigQuery to lifecycle communications in Iterable, to establishing some of our most foundational cross-functional processes like OKRs and cross-functional implementation
- Led both product and engineering for 3 years on an intentionally lean team which pushed my creativity further than I thought possible
About six months ago, I approached Carine Carmy, Nick Kavassalis, and Agatha Baldwin about next steps in my career. I'm proud to be handing over the baton in good shape, and cheering on the next stages of growth.
I know it's a little unconventional to be this transparent about a departure. But I have so much respect for this team and the mission behind this company that anything less felt wrong.
From here, I'm carving my own path. I'm launching ARK Foundry, a consulting practice focused on helping health tech companies navigate the 0→1 space, building platforms with scale, complexity, and a genuinely upgraded experience for both clinicians and patients in mind.
And I'll be staying on as an advisor to Origin, so today isn't goodbye, it's "talk to you next week."
