Retired Investment Banker
Treasurer, Dartmouth-Hitchcock/Dartmouth Health Boards
Secretary, Dartmouth Health Board
Chair of the Finance and Development Committees
Charlie retired from Wall Street in 2012, having worked at Citigroup, Merrill Lynch and a predecessor firm to UBS. His 31-year investment banking career was devoted exclusively to serving the non-profit segment of the healthcare industry. During this time span, he witnessed and participated in profound changes to the U.S. healthcare delivery system, including the introduction of DRGs, the evolution of managed care, national healthcare reform debate and enactment, provider diversification followed by consolidation, and the current wave of horizontal and vertical integration.
Charlie was lead banker to a wide variety of exempt healthcare organizations including vertically integrated providers (Scripps Health and Sharp Healthcare, both in San Diego); academic medical centers (University of Colorado Hospital in Aurora); research institutes (Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle); pediatric referral centers (Children’s Hospital Los Angeles and Seattle Children’s Hospital); multi-state hospital systems (Daughters of Charity Health System in Los Altos Hills, CA and Wheaton Franciscan Services in Milwaukee); and virtual provider organizations bound together through joint operating agreements (Exempla, Inc. in Denver). The types of engagements he managed included taxable and tax-exempt financings, merger and acquisition transactions, and comprehensive asset and liability management advisory and implementation services.
Charlie received his BA from the University of Pennsylvania and his MBA from The Tuck School at Dartmouth. Charlie is involved in various organizations as a volunteer.
