Musculoskeletal pain and injury is the top cause of

global disability, affecting 54% of the U.S. population and is one of the most

unnecessarily high-cost, and objectively not evidence-based. Vori Health was

established to combat these inequities by delivering a truly elevated,

human-centered, patient care experience through cutting-edge technology,

John’s personal path to High Performance began as a child, when he stood alongside his

father at an air show featuring the Blue Angels. From that moment, John knew

deep in his heart that someday he’d be carving up the skies as a member of the

Blues. Eventually, he lived that dream, but getting there wasn’t easy. In fact,

John’s journey from an awe-struck child at an air show to the cockpit of the

Blue Angels’ F/A-18 Hornet is a study in persistence, hard work and the will to

overcome obstacles and setbacks.Those ideals fit within three overriding traits

that mark John’s presentations: First, a contagious attitude of thankfulness

that he calls Glad To Be Here®. Second, an energizing delivery that inspires

High Performance and service to others. And, third, a practical model for

living out his message that works in other organizations as well as it works

for the Blue Angels.

 John graduated from the U.S. Naval Academy with a degree

in mechanical engineering. He also was a defensive back for the Midshipmen,

playing in two bowl games and helping Navy to one of the best four-year records

in its football history. As a pilot, John was a “Top Ten Carrier Pilot” six

times before becoming a Marine instructor pilot and a Blue Angel. He holds

master’s degrees in business management, from the Stanford Graduate School of

Business (as a Sloan Fellow); in international policy studies, from Stanford

University; and in strategic studies, from the Naval War College. He makes his

home in Sun Valley, Idaho.
