Dr. Marlow Hernandez is a physician-executive with more than 15 years of experience in value-based care across the United States. He has led healthcare initiatives that combine clinical practice with structured system design to deliver measurable, life-saving outcomes for hundreds of thousands of patients. His work centers on improving access, strengthening coordination, and building scalable care models.

Hernandez holds a clear, consistent belief: “We do not turn patients away.” Guided by this principle, he has developed organizations that integrate primary care, specialty services, and advanced analytics to support proactive and personalized medicine. He applies data as a clinical tool, using it to identify risk early and improve long-term outcomes, especially for underserved populations.

Born in Cienfuegos, Cuba, and raised in the Miami area, he immigrated to the United States in 1993. During childhood, he witnessed gaps in healthcare while observing his grandmother manage complicated diabetes. At five years old, Marlow Hernandez promised he would become a physician and help her. That early promise shaped his broader mission to improve healthcare systems for entire communities. He earned a Bachelor’s in Neuroscience from the University of Miami and a Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine (DO) from Nova Southeastern University. He completed his training at Cleveland Clinic Florida and is a Diplomate of the American Board of Internal Medicine, a Diplomate of the American Board of Venous & Lymphatic Medicine, and a Fellow of the American College of Physicians (FACP).

With DO, MPH, and MBA training, he founded a healthcare organization that expanded from one clinic into a $3 billion revenue platform serving 400,000 members. Under his leadership, it became the fastest-growing primary care network in the U.S. for two consecutive years, according to Inc. magazine. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the organization achieved a sustained 60% reduction in patient mortality, findings published in the American Journal of Managed Care (AJMC). It maintained a Five-Star quality rating for five straight years. It grew from $0 to nearly $1.0 billion in revenue within two years under the inaugural CMS direct contracting entity (now ACO REACH).

In 2023, Dr. Marlow left the company, which reorganized as a private entity in June 2024 and continues to operate in Florida. He later co-founded a senior-focused healthcare organization in Nevada, including locations on Tropicana Ave in Las Vegas and in North Las Vegas. There, he introduced a 48-Hour Guarantee and supported the development of a proprietary platform that predicts 30-day hospitalization risk with over 90% accuracy.

He remains active in clinical practice with unrestricted licenses in Florida and Nevada. His service includes charitable medical care, disaster relief, frontline pandemic response, long-term faith-based giving, research publication, conference contributions, and civic recognition. Throughout his career, Dr. Marlow Hernandez has remained committed to patient access and system improvement.

Matt Fenner has dedicated more than 30 years to acquiring companies, improving their financial and operational performance, expanding their value, and guiding them toward successful exits. Working from Florida, he combines a strong accounting background with executive leadership and hands-on business management experience. Over the years, he has worked across organizations of varying sizes, from startup ventures to large corporate operations.

Matt earned an MBA in Finance and a BBA in Accounting from the University of North Florida. After beginning his professional career in a CPA firm, he moved into private enterprise, where financial discipline and practical business decision-making were closely connected. Early experiences taught him that while financial statements provide important information, lasting improvements come from taking the right actions to strengthen business performance.

One of his notable accomplishments was helping support the growth and sale of the largest privately owned alarm security company in the United States. Following that transaction, he joined the acquiring company's M&A team, where he contributed to tuck-in acquisitions in a business generating $10 billion in annual revenue. This experience helped shape his understanding of acquisitions, business growth, and value creation.

Matt Fenner from Jacksonville later served as CFO and startup equity partner for a motorcycle retail organization operating several locations across Florida with annual revenue exceeding $50 million. During a period of renewed growth for the historic brand, he played an important role in building its retail presence.

At a leading business process outsourcing company, Matt co-led financial operations for the Wireless and Wireline Telecom division. This business unit employs 17,000 people and generates $800 million in annual revenue. During that time, he improved margins by $22 million, removed more than $11 million in billing errors, consolidated 30 billing systems into three centralized platforms, and helped secure over $50 million in new contract revenue.

In 2019, he co-founded a Jacksonville-based venture capital firm and continues to serve as COO/CFO. The organization has grown into 12 operating companies, with more than 1,000 employees working across Clinical Health and Technology Staffing, Technology PMO, Civil Engineering, Construction, and Pediatric Dental and Neurological Medical Research, along with 20 passive investments. Revenue increased from $30 million in 2018 to a projected $200 million by year-end 2026. Throughout his career, Matt Fenner has focused on building scalable organizations, improving operations, and creating sustainable long-term value through disciplined leadership and strategic growth.

Tiara Jamison is the Founder and CEO of AnnieGuard, a causal intelligence company focused on understanding the hidden systems that drive biological threats, disease, environmental risk, and complex human outcomes.

Her work centers on a simple but powerful idea: events do not happen randomly. Whether the outcome is a disease diagnosis, a public health crisis, an environmental disaster, or a system failure, there are underlying causes that can be reconstructed from the data that already exists.

Drawing on experience across Microsoft, Google, and Amazon, Tiara combines systems thinking, threat detection principles, artificial intelligence, and biological research to help organizations move beyond prediction and toward understanding why events happen.

After losing her mother, Annie, to sarcoma, Tiara founded AnnieGuard to challenge conventional approaches to disease detection and risk assessment. Today, her work explores how causal intelligence can be applied across healthcare, biological security, environmental systems, public safety, and critical infrastructure.

Tiara speaks on causal intelligence, biological and environmental threats, systems failure, healthcare innovation, artificial intelligence, entrepreneurship, resilience, and the future of decision-making in complex environments.
