Professional Journey

Brown started his career in healthcare finance on the transaction side. According to Modern Health, he worked in Bank of America Merrill Lynch’s healthcare investment banking group and then in the private equity healthcare practice of GTCR. The announcement does not give his titles at either.

He then moved into an operating role at Health Catalyst, the healthcare data and analytics company that trades on Nasdaq as HCAT. Modern Health says he was there from its early, venture-backed stage and helped take it through several funding rounds, its IPO and the acquisition of six companies, as it grew to more than $300 million in revenue and 1,400 team members. Health Catalyst’s SEC-filed press releases name him as investor relations contact: as Senior Vice President, Investor Relations in April 2020, and as Senior Vice President, Investor Relations and FP&A in 2022 and 2023.

Modern Health announced him as Chief Financial Officer on 15 January 2025. The company offers employees one-on-one, group and self-serve digital support through a single platform, and is backed by investors including Kleiner Perkins, Founders Fund and Battery Ventures. When he joined, then President and COO Gyre Renwick pointed to his experience with both public and private markets. Brown said he would use his experience scaling healthcare technology companies to help drive the company’s next phase of growth. His appointment came shortly after Modern Health acquired Anvil Health’s artificial intelligence technology. Modern Health’s current executive team page lists Matt Levin as Chief Executive Officer, founder Alyson Watson as Executive Chair of the Board, and Brown as Chief Financial Officer.
