I led the design and launch of Verily’s Lightpath clinician console, a scalable platform for diabetes management used by providers to document and coordinate patient care. This product renewed a $1M+ contract with Blue Cross Blue Shield Highmark and, for the first time in Verily's history, was selected as a finalist for the BCBS Federal Employee Program—a potential $100M contract covering 5.7 million patients. My work laid the foundation for Verily’s broader care strategy, including the upcoming AI-driven 2026 Lightpath Metabolic program. I also established design systems and launch processes, now leveraged company-wide.

I built Lightpath to scale across multiple clinical conditions, user needs, and products. Today, more than 5 Verily products use this structure, adopted by design systems. My earlier work on the former patient app laid the foundation for experimentation and flexibility, later leveraged by Verily Me, now 5-star-rated on iOS and Android.
