I find the opportunity in the overlap.
I'm Dave Malin - a healthcare strategist, entrepreneur, and collaborator based in Louisville, Kentucky. For 20+ years I've worked at the intersection of complex systems and real-world results, leading partnerships, building programs, and helping organizations operate smarter. Today I split my time between advisory work, active ventures, and finding the right people to build something new with.
My professional roots are deep in Medicare Advantage and Medicaid - at Humana, where I spent nearly a decade building and scaling national programs, and at Tivity Health/SilverSneakers, where I led an $80M portfolio of health plan partnerships and guided 40+ plans through adoption, growth, and operational improvement. I've designed programs that generated $200M+ in impact, reduced cost of care by 16%, and built teams from the ground up. I know how payers think, how vendors operate, and how to make both sides of that relationship work.
I'm also a builder. I run Techwitpro, a global design and digital studio. I'm launching Braive, an AI voice agent platform for local service businesses. And I operate CraftForest, a digital asset marketplace. These aren't hobbies - they're how I stay sharp, stay curious, and stay connected to what's actually working in the market right now.
I'm always open to the right conversation - whether that's a senior leadership role in healthcare or health tech, a partnership on something being built, a collaboration that nobody's put a name on yet, or simply a brainstorm with someone who sees the world a little differently. If you're building something and think there's an overlap, reach out. I'm easier to talk to than this bio makes me sound.
