Drawing on years of hospital leadership and hands-on implementation of AI systems, we help AI companies refine their user experience, streamline workflows, and close high-value enterprise contracts.

  • Responsible for 100s of millions in annual service-line revenue and multi-million-dollar deals.
  • Award-winning quality initiatives in high-acuity and procedural environments.

  • Support building value stories and ROI cases that land in capital budgeting, value analysis, and finance committee reviews.

Why Choose Alpha?

We help your AI not just survive but thrive in the C-suite conference room pitch.

Nearly two decades in hospitals means I haven’t just read about how care is delivered — I’ve lived it from the bedside to operations. Over that time I’ve built real working relationships with Radiologists, ED Physicians, Surgeons, Hospital Executives, Nurse leaders, and the Technologists who keep imaging and procedural areas running.

Many of these people are still colleagues and collaborators today. They are at the peak of their careers, running high-stakes services and carrying real responsibility for safety, quality, and financial performance.

When you work with Alpha, you don’t just get my perspective — you get access to this network as a living test bench for your product. We use their feedback to stress-test your workflows, UI, and value story before you walk into a C-suite or capital committee.

The result is a tighter product and a sharper pitch: one that already accounts for the questions, objections, and politics your AI will face inside real hospital systems.
