Hippie? Cool!

I am a black man with an Ivy league education (advanced engineering) that has been involved with medical devices and capital equipment for a long time (engineering summer student 1978 - 1984 and on the business side immediately after engineering grad school 1985 to basically present).

Huge companies like GE healthcare, and start-ups. In two of those I worked with two of the three of inventors of pulse OX.

Was a pre-med in engineering grad school (where I focused on biomedical and electrical engineering) so elected to take all the pre-med orgo classes and a medical physiology class.

Most of my friends will find it funny that I have been labled a hippie on social media.

Oh and I am a pretty unapologetic capitalist.... perhaps headed toward venture capital next.

I am not a big believer in ad hominem in general nor do I generally participate in social media.

Big believer in cobbling and disruption in healthcare.
