Innovating Glycemic Care with Ashley Reynolds PhD MSN RN Chief Product Officer

This week on PopHealth Week, Fred Goldstein had the pleasure of hosting Dr. Ashley Reynolds, Chief Product and Experience Officer at Glytec, a health tech company revolutionizing the management of glycemic control in healthcare settings. With a dynamic career path that began in the Navy as a corpsman and evolved through nursing, emergency care, and a Ph.D. in digital health, Ashley brings a unique perspective to the healthcare industry. His journey is a testament to his passion for transforming patient care through technology.

Ashley’s journey into healthcare began in an unexpected way. Originally a pre-med student, financial constraints led him to join the military, where he served as a Navy corpsman—essentially a combat medic. This early experience laid the foundation for his nursing career, where he worked in intensive and critical care settings. It was here that he discovered a passion for understanding the "why" behind patients' health conditions. This curiosity led him to pivot into population health and eventually to pursue a Ph.D. focused on how digital tools can drive behavioral change in healthcare.

Over the years, Ashley has held leadership roles in health tech startups and healthcare systems, leading to her current role at Glytec, where he oversees product and customer experience with a focus on leveraging technology for better clinical outcomes.
