Kevin Buchan Jr.'s Linkedin Analytics

I lead Data & Analytics as VP at Astrana Health. I received a Ph.D. in Information Science from the State University of New York at Albany in 2021. My dissertation was titled, "Using Machine Learning to Predict Super-Utilizers of Healthcare Services." After successful ventures in data science and analytics, software engineering, and IT, I have become especially adept at learning and implementing new technologies to solve real-world problems. In doing so, I realized a true passion for helping people. I plan to use my previous education (at Siena College, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, University of Rochester, and the State University of New York at Albany), and vast work experience in multiple technology employments (including my current work leading Data & Analytics at Astrana health and my previous experience as AVP of Data & Analytics at ApolloMed and Principal Data Scientist at Nascate), to make the world a better place. I am always on the lookout to explore new opportunities in health informatics, especially those that intersect with cutting-edge technology. My favorite days are when I get the chance to learn something entirely new, but I often settle for opportunities to hone my skills. I believe that problem solving is my greatest asset. I've held an array of positions in the field of technology, including: Leading Data & Analytics as VP, AVP of Data & Analytics, AVP of Analytics, Director of Analytics, Principal Data Scientist, Software Engineer, Senior IT Consultant, and Information Solutions specialist.
