John Erwin is the CEO and Founder of Carenet Health, a health engagement and virtual care company serving more than 400 healthcare organizations across telehealth, patient access, and clinical navigation.
He describes Carenet's job as walking alongside the patient and making sure they take the next right action. Whether they need the ER or don't. Whether they picked up the prescription. The parts of care that happen outside the clinic, where most of a patient's health actually gets decided.
In this episode of DGTL Voices, John tells Ed about growing a business from 20 people, why he believes the healthcare consumer has more leverage now than at any point in his career, and the two skills he credits for everything that worked.

Kesava Dinakaran is the CEO and Co-Founder of Luminai, an AI platform that moves manual administrative work at large health systems over to agents. Luminai has raised $60M to date and works with health systems including Cleveland Clinic.
Kesava spent seven years of his childhood solving Rubik's Cubes eight hours a day, broke the world record for most cubes solved in one hour, then cycled from Turkey to China having never ridden a bike before. He skipped college entirely. In this episode of DGTL Voices, he tells Ed how a family health event in 2023 turned a general interest in automation into a specific obsession with healthcare, why he thinks the point solution era created more admin work than it removed, and what happens when a health system stops treating its fax volume as somebody's full-time job.
He also makes a case most CEOs would not make out loud: that vulnerability is an operating requirement, not a personality trait.

C.P. Gurnani is the Founder of Aionos, an AI-enabled company he launched in April 2024 after a 44-year career in the global technology industry.

In this second appearance on DGTL Voices, C.P. sits down with Ed for a conversation that starts with a Bollywood song about perseverance and ends with why the world's real innovation is happening in places most people aren't watching. He walks through India's advantage at the intersection of talent, data, and the willingness to work within constraints, telling the story of a friend making cancer diagnostics affordable for under one dollar.
He shares the three biggest misconceptions about AI, why he thinks the world is measuring it wrong, and what it takes to build a company where the mission is to have fun and create real impact.

Nish Khandwala is the Co-Founder and CEO of Bunkerhill Health, an AI agent platform for health systems backed by Sequoia and deployed at Cleveland Clinic, Stanford, UCSF, and more than 25 other institutions. A Stanford CS grad with a Master's in AI and a Forbes 30 Under 30 honoree, Nish built Bunkerhill after a Nature-published research algorithm he helped build at Stanford sat unused on his laptop for two years, then found its real-world moment when his own father had a heart attack.
In this episode of DGTL Voices, Nish talks with Ed about the calcium-scoring model that inspired the company, why healthcare has to stop imposing drug-development timelines on modern software, and the governance shift he thinks hospital CEOs need to make: drive the cost of failure toward zero, iterate fast, and stop treating AI like a five-year plan. Plus his origin story from India to Saudi Arabia to Stanford, the difficult-conversations lesson he's learned about leadership, and why he doesn't buy the false dichotomy between clinical and administrative AI.

In this episode of DGTL Voices, Andrew talks with Ed about the winding path from Grand Rapids to Georgetown to a venture capital detour at a high-frequency trading firm before starting Artisight, why he believes starting a company is really about solving a trillion small problems, and the one question he keeps asking his team, his advisors, and himself: what is the next step? Plus his hard-won lesson about why hospitals need vendors to be prescriptive rather than collaborative, and why the future of smart hospitals depends on physicians and nurses having a seat at the innovation table.

In this episode of DGTL Voices, Ashley sits down with Ed to talk about what it takes to build an applied AI function inside a major health system. She walks through the three pillars guiding her work at Sutter, why organizational readiness matters as much as the technology itself, and the discipline required to scope and prioritize when the AI news cycle creates a constant pull toward urgency. Plus the seventh-grade math teacher who shaped her trajectory, the mantra her dad gave her about Brinks trucks and funeral processions, and why she defines success today by what teams achieve together rather than individual metrics.

She shares her perspective as a Black female urologist on what it took to navigate her training, how she leads through really listening, and why she believes failure is part of the path to anything worth building.

In this episode of DGTL Voices, Rob tells Ed about growing up in Hawaii (his high school classmate happened to become President of the United States), the conversation that pulled him from research into medicine, why clinicians need to keep practicing to keep their credibility, and his case against the endless creation of new C-suite titles every time technology evolves.

In this episode, Luis talks about why he had to leave Mexico to stop being his father's son, why identifying your weaknesses matters more than knowing your strengths, and why the difference between ordinary and extraordinary is always that little 'extra.'

Phoebe Yang is the daughter of a single-parent Chinese immigrant father who raised three daughters in Pine Bluff, Arkansas. She went to law school intending to become a law professor, until her father was diagnosed with late-stage colorectal cancer and given four months to live. That moment changed everything.
From there, Phoebe built a career that spans AOL Time Warner (launching their China office), Discovery (turning around Discovery Health and doing early deals with Amazon, Google, and Microsoft when nobody else wanted them), the Obama administration's FCC, the Advisory Board Company, Amazon, and board roles at GE, Doximity, and CommonSpirit. She now teaches the business of AI at Stanford.
In this episode, Phoebe talks about why healthcare is the only industry where the greatest predictor of success is tied to how well you see the human being first, what curious humility means in a board role, why Socrates feared the written word the same way we fear AI, and what it means to sit alone in a Roman church with two Caravaggio paintings all day.

Nine years ago, she underwent open heart surgery that changed everything.
In this episode, Avonia talks about why faith isn't passive, why she chooses joy as an active daily decision, how the discipline she learned in a cucumber row is the same discipline she uses to break down complex business problems, and why the human factor in AI is no different from Whitney Houston transforming Chaka Khan's original into something new while honoring the source.

After four rounds of chemo and a JAMA essay that resonated with thousands of healthcare professionals, Jenna is sharing what she learned: you are replaceable at work, but you are not replaceable at home. She talks about why doctors need sabbaticals, why modeling wellness matters more than preaching it, and why she didn't know she could write until cancer forced her to pause long enough to find out.

Rachini Moosavi is the Chief Analytics Officer at UNC Health, an 18-hospital system serving the state of North Carolina.
She's a first-generation American whose parents moved from Sri Lanka to Illinois. It took her until her late thirties to feel comfortable knowing exactly who she was, and that journey shaped how she leads today. Rachini started in consulting, fell into revenue cycle, and found her love of analytics there.
She never planned to be a chief anything. Her career was a series of open doors she chose to walk through, and sometimes doors she had to make for herself by raising her hand and asking to be in the room. In this episode, Rachini talks about the Disney movie line that became her life mantra, leading UNC Health's sixth-largest Microsoft Fabric implementation worldwide, why vulnerability is a leadership superpower, and the advice she'd give every graduating class: it's perfectly okay to say "I don't know" when asked where you'll be in five years.

Leigh Thomas Williams is Vice President and CIO at Augusta Health, a 255-bed community health system in Virginia's Shenandoah Valley. She's also President of the HIMSS Virginia Chapter and an Ambassador for the Dr. Lorna Breen Heroes' Foundation. Leigh started her career in law, got recruited into healthcare at the University of Mississippi Medical Center, and found her calling in technology leadership during an EHR implementation when she realized IT was treating it like a software install and she was treating it like a chance to transform the way people work. Now she's leading Care Reimagined, a multi-year digital transformation built on three promises: meaningfully improve the professional workday, create compassionate patient journeys, and steward resources wisely for the community. When Augusta Health's Dr. Snodgrass told Leigh that their AI physician assistant was the first time technology had been done for her as opposed to to her, it became a watershed moment for the entire organization. In this episode, Leigh talks about walkup songs for every day (not just keynotes), why she finally started baking brownies for her team, learning German at age 8 with no English-speaking teacher, and why now is not the time to take the foot off the pedal. https://marxadvisory.com
