Leading Ethics and Compliance Consulting Experts 2025

I’m a lifesciences compliance strategist with a passion for building real-world, right-sized programs in fast-moving environments. With deep experience in pharma and medtech, I specialize in translating regulatory complexity into practical, actionable frameworks. I’ve spent 7+ years navigating the gray areas of compliance—from training physicians on industry expectations to building startup programs from the ground up. I believe compliance should be ethical, functional, and human-centered—and that culture is built through clarity, storytelling, and respect, not fear. Outside of policy and audits, I speak regularly on startup compliance and love turning “boring” topics into memorable moments. I'm here to connect, create, and contribute.

I am a healthcare compliance executive and the originator of Stark Watch, a generative AI platform built to monitor physician contracts for strict adherence to the Stark Law and the Anti-Kickback Statute (AKS). As a Compliance Vice President at a $4B health system, I navigate the complexities of healthcare regulations, hospital-physician financial relationships, and corporate ethics on a daily basis. Ensuring physician compensation compliance is one of the most resource-intensive challenges for modern hospitals. Historically, auditing these agreements for Fair Market Value (FMV) and commercial reasonableness required hundreds of hours of manual review. Recognizing this bottleneck, I architected Stark Watch to transform healthcare regulatory technology (RegTech). Our compliance software leverages generative AI to automate contract analysis, detect potential AKS violations, and track compensation tied to Designated Health Services (DHS). By turning a reactive auditing process into a proactive, technology-driven workflow, Stark Watch empowers health systems to protect their bottom line, avoid severe regulatory penalties, and maintain the highest ethical standards in their physician partnerships. With a deep commitment to safeguarding healthcare integrity, I hold triple certifications: Certified in Healthcare Compliance (CHC), Certified Compliance & Ethics Professional (CCEP), and Certified in Healthcare Privacy Compliance (CHPC). My current focus is bridging the gap between stringent regulatory frameworks and cutting-edge technology. I actively use artificial intelligence to streamline compliance operations, ensure alignment with OIG safe harbors, and mitigate AKS and Stark Law risks in complex contracting environments. My professional focus centers on providing actionable insights into the practical application of AI in healthcare administration, the evolving landscape of the Stark Law and Anti-Kickback Statute, and the future of healthcare compliance software. Whether analyzing recent Department of Justice enforcement trends or designing algorithms to parse complex medical directorship agreements, my goal is to make healthcare compliance more efficient, accurate, and accessible.

I am passionate about creating spaces within organizations that are diverse, inclusive and engaging.
