"We all have our health story, it’s all about how we navigate that journey."

For the last 20 years, Brian has been working in the healthcare industry as an attorney, COO, and most recently as the founder and CEO of Advance Health, an in-home care company. A few years ago, his mom was diagnosed with cancer. During that time, Brian discovered that even with his experience, resources, and connections, he and his family still had a difficult time navigating his mother’s health care. When she passed away, he decided that there needed to be a better way to manage and care for chronic conditions. So, Brian sold Advance Health in 2019 and created Cix Health. "I started this company because I think we can make people’s lives easier."

Brian is an avid reader who reads three books at a time. He also enjoys whipping up Blue Apron meals for his family and spending time with his two yellow labs and chocolate lab puppy.

“Managing our health should become more of a priority in our day-to-day lives.”

After spending his early career working as a developer focused on consumer goods, Brian transitioned into product development and started working in the healthcare industry. It was during that time that he realized “the healthcare industry is really challenged and ripe for innovation." So when the opportunity to partner and build Cix Health came along, Brian was excited to create a product focused on helping people take control of their health through knowledge, awareness, and advocacy. “This is a tool that can facilitate collaboration with your providers, specialists, and your family. It can keep everyone aligned on what’s going on with your health.” Brian believes Cix Health can help people have more control over their lives and their health.

Brian spends his downtime with his twin daughters playing sports and staying active. Some of his favorite activities are reading, running, and playing golf.

“I love to be a detective.”

At Cix Health, she’s focused on creating a product that helps people manage their health care better. “Thinking about health care can feel foggy, scary, and just something you don’t want to deal with. We’re trying to make it clear and easy so people feel more empowered going into medical situations."


Holly likes to read, listen to bluegrass, and travel. Just don’t ask her for directions. She and her family once turned a 4-hour hike into a 12-hour adventure lost in Yosemite National Park.

For me, it’s my mom.” In 2017, Amber’s mom passed away due to complications from asthma and COPD. “My mom didn’t realize that things like the neighborhood where she lived hurt her health. Having a tool like Cix Health would have helped her be proactive about managing her conditions.”

Amber is a former bartender who enjoys listening to people's stories. She loves taking spontaneous walks through the city and spending time with her Yorkie, Albert.
