About Terry

Terry’s entire career has been focused on digital transformation. Prior to founding Carefeed, Terry spent the last decade leading the hospital business unit at PatientPoint, a L-Catterton company. Healthcare is part of Terry’s DNA. His family has a long history in medicine—his father, grandfather and great-grandfather were all physicians. Although Terry chose business school over medical school, his deep connection with the industry makes Carefeed the ideal company with which he plans to make his own mark on the industry.

After seeing firsthand how antiquated some of the processes were in the post-acute care setting, Terry founded Carefeed with the goal to make the lives of staff at senior communities easier, while at the same time promoting trust and transparency among patients, residents, and family members.  Outside of work, Terry and his wife spend their time chasing their eight children and attending a myriad of kid activities.
