David Westbrook is an insightful, funny and inspiring specimen of a human being. At the age of 17, David Westbrook lost his eyesight to juvenile glaucoma. He says his blindness has been nothing less than a “privilege,” connecting him to innate talents and opportunities he likely never would have reached had he remained sighted.

Professionally, David served as Senior Vice President for Strategy and Innovation at Children’s Mercy in Kansas City, Missouri. He has been associated with the health care system for over 25 years. Prior to that time, Westbrook founded and successfully operated a consulting practice that employed 30 professionals and served Fortune 500n clients throughout the nation. As a consultant, Westbrook’s health care clients included dozens of diverse medical subspecialty practices, hospital systems, the Mayo Clinic, American Medical Association, Hallmark, the Farmers Insurance Group, Metropolitan Life Insurance, and Blue Cross Blue Shield.

Please enjoy his wisdom and humor!!
