Journey to Re-envisioning Access to Health Data
James is a licensed carpenter, quantum scientist and health-tech entrepreneur who is motivated by solving novel transformative problems. First joining as a partner in his family carpentry business, he built houses for 9 years until his strong interest in quantum physics led him to the University of Toronto. There he studied Engineering Science, majoring in physics and completed his masters with top publications in physical review letters and APS Physics. During his PhD, James partnered with co-founder Derrick Chow to found Medchart on a mission to eliminate barriers to access and control of one’s health information after experiencing the pains of interacting with archaic health information systems while his father-in-law was ill. As CEO, he has successfully grown MEdchart across the USA and Canada and attracted world-class investors to accelerate growth. He continues to grow Medchart today and is on a mission to radically re-envision access to health data.
