  • Physician practices (value-based care, primary care, behavioral health, surgery, dermatology, GI, women’s health, etc.)
  • Other practices (dental, physical therapy, optometry, nutrition, wellness, etc.)
  • Facilities (hospitals, ASCs, urgent care centers, imaging centers, ED/OR staffing, etc.)
  • Long-term care (home health, hospice, palliative, skilled nursing, senior living, etc.)

Rob previously worked in the private equity industry as an investment professional for WPA, a PE firm based in Boston with a fund focused on emerging markets, and for Lyceum Capital, a London-based PE firm with a fund focused on business services in the UK.


Rob also has operating experience gained on the corporate strategy team and later as chief of staff to the CEO at ING Direct, the largest online bank in the U.S., and as chief strategy officer and head of product at the Society of Grownups, a financial literacy startup backed by a $35M investment from MassMutual.


Rob has an M.B.A. from The Wharton School and a B.S. in Physics from Brigham Young University.

Extracurricular

As a married family man, Rob definitely has his hands full. If he isn’t coaching his youngest daughter’s basketball team or climbing rock walls with his oldest daughter, he’s spending quality time with his son doing what all fathers and sons enjoy— melting aluminum cans and casting them into sculptures with their homemade backyard foundry.
