Full bio

I founded Eco-Medical Solutions (EMS) during my senior year of college while attending Loyola Marymount University. EMS is a company focused on the implementation of electronic health records (EHRs) and we help healthcare professionals adopt a paperless system by effectively training them on how to use the software. As certified consultants for Practice Fusion, which is the #1 web-based EHR software, EMS is able to help doctors receive a federal incentive bonus of up to $68,000 over five years.

Currently, I am overseeing Eco-Medical Solutions' operations though am focused almost exclusively on the growth and expansion of Night Tap.

Additionally, I am a part-time MBA student at Loyola Marymount University, studying finance and entrepreneurship. My expected graduation date is December 2012.
