Brendan / Work / Healthcare

Healthcare systems, across the workflow.

I build production AI at Arcadia. My earlier work spans cardiology imaging, clinical documentation, EHR workflows and healthcare data platforms.

Current work

As VP of AI & Automation, I work hands-on on agentic assistants, LLM evaluation and observability, and document-workflow orchestration for regulated healthcare data.

The public record below describes my product responsibilities and earlier results. It does not establish clinical effectiveness or autonomous clinical use of the current AI systems.
