Dave has over 40 years of healthcare experience, starting as an EMT in the 1980s, with experience in managed care and as an administrator for the past 30 years. He has served two stints as the Hospital’s CEO, first from 2004 to 2013, and again from 2016 to present.

Dave is passionate about community healthcare. He is focused on leading the industry’s transformation to accountable care, assuring the entire community has access to high-quality healthcare and the quality of life it affords. He helped found the Valley Health Alliance, a collaboration of local employers and healthcare providers that is working to improve healthcare outcomes and lower costs for residents and businesses from Aspen to Parachute. Dave serves on the boards of the Colorado Hospital Association, the Community Care Alliance, the Western Healthcare Alliance, the Valley Health Alliance, and the Aspen Chamber and Resort Association. He and his wife Julie raised their children in Aspen, enjoying the outdoor lifestyle.
