An IT Analyst for over 15yrs, primarily in the manufacturing sector. Now applying that wealth of experience and to the Healthcare IT (HIT) market sector. What is the motivation? The HIT market is in a similar state as the manufacturing sector was in the late 80's. Thus there will be similar issues to address such as: how to manage a multitude of disparate, legacy systems; how to foster adoption among users; where to find and leverage the highest value from IT investments; and among vendors, who will succeed and who will falter.
Prior to becoming an analyst, I was SVP of Marketing for a leading analytical instrumentation company, was a Research Associate at MIT (area of research: diffusion of technologies into regulated markets) and prior to that, a policy wonk for the Commonwealth of MA setting policy in the Commonwealth's Coastal Zone Region.
