Brian brought almost two decades of health care finance and operations experience with him when he became Clinica Family Health’s chief financial officer in 2019. After finishing his master’s degree in healthcare administration, Brian began an administrative fellowship at St. Luke’s Hospital in Kansas City, MO. He stayed with the organization for more than eight years, acting as the director of support service, special projects, ancillary services and finally as the CEO of one of St. Luke’s medical centers. Brian also spent time with Avera Health in Sioux Falls, SD, learning about telemedicine and its many applications in the future of health care. When Brian joined Clinica in 2015, he took on the role of clinic director at the Thornton clinic. There, he oversaw 95 staff and managed a budget of almost $12 million for a clinic that provided health care to almost 9,700 patients. During this time, Brian was also tasked with rolling out a new service line for Clinica: walk-in services at two locations. The walk-in clinics have proven to be exceedingly popular with existing patients and a significant source of new patients. As Clinica’s CFO, Brian wants to provide financial stewardship that will assure donors and optimize Clinica’s fiscal resources.
