Organ procurement operations · data and AI · public-records research
Five years in the operating room across three Florida organ procurement organizations: 850+ recovery procedures and 2,500+ organs recovered. MBA in IT Management, January 2027.
“I work inside systems where failure costs lives. They taught me that competence is a form of caring, and that institutions, like people, are what they practice when no one is watching.”
I work in organ procurement surgery. I built a small business. I study how institutions succeed and fail, and I write here to think clearly, not to be impressive.
