Résumé

Alicia Juarez

Digital Product & Marketing leader · Chicago, IL. A decade across global healthcare, technology, gaming, and media.

About

I translate user insights into roadmaps, prototypes, and digital experiences that meet both business goals and regulatory requirements, and just as readily into the campaigns and content that drive adoption. Most recently I've been the AI/ML liaison for Abbott's Diagnostics business, shaping how machine learning shows up in our products and customer experience.

Outside the office, I'm a curious thrill-seeker and mindfulness practitioner whose Spotify playlist is permanently stuck in the '60s and '70s.
