Strong organizational leader from the medical technology industry who can take the company from a technically driven one to successful commercial implementation.
Visionary leader who can generate excitement among medical practitioners in the market and among investors by clearly articulating the benefit of a disruptive new technology that is clearly distinct from traditional ambulatory cardiac monitors and wearables.
