After over five years of frontline health service experience as a medical doctor, William directs digital health implementation in education, industry and academia. Over 11 publications, a Cambridge medical education and commercial experience gives him a holistic perspective to balancing the risks and benefits of pre-emptive biotechnology. He offers cross-functional leadership experience in the integration of academic and commercial interests to optimise patient outcomes. Typical past engagements include coordinating academic, commercial and regulatory stakeholder interests, with experience in biotechnology and healthcare machine learning. As a manager of digital medical education at Imperial, he has developed Virtual Reality Emergency Clinical Simulation Training, Electronic Health Record and Clinical Informatics Training, and Large Language Model awareness, including Clinical Prompt Engineering, leading to three publications and an expansion of the Health Education England funding for this national pilot. As Clinical Associate at Sanome, he currently leads SaMD regulatory and product development, which has been recognised by adoption onto the Launchpad Programme run by Digital Health London. He can work successfully in a matrix environment, prioritise and manage multiple tasks simultaneously, whilst integrating cross-functional issues and balancing competing priorities effectively. This is reinforced by a high degree of energy, accuracy and attention to detail, and a passion for delivering impactful publications, such as his authorship of a Lancet Global Health Commission, which progress global health outcomes.
