“I'm happy to recommend Charles Keenan, a software developer working on contract at Providence Health Care. Charles is the lead developer on our patient-reported outcomes visualization tool, the first SMART on FHIR application PHC has ever deployed. It runs inside our electronic health record, so clinicians can see how their patients are doing right at the point of care. Being first meant there was no internal playbook to follow, and Charles's work has laid the foundation for the SMART on FHIR apps that come after it. Charles is just as effective with clinicians as with code. Charles works side by side with care teams to understand what they need, turns their feedback into clear requirements, and refines the tool until it fits how they actually work. That combination of technical depth and clinical partnership is rare. Any healthcare enterprise working on health data interoperability would be lucky to have Charles.”

“I had the pleasure of managing Charles over a four-month engagement in which they led the migration of patient data to new CRM and electronic health record systems. It's a project where the stakes are high and he delivered with confidence and care. On the technical side, Charles is very capable with data migration and integration. He mapped complex source data to new systems, designed clean validation and reconciliation processes, and kept data integrity front and center throughout. Charles kept clinical, operational, and technical teams aligned, translated technical details into plain language, and handled competing priorities with patience and good judgment. People trusted him, and that trust kept the project moving. Charles is a rare combination of technical depth and people skills. I'd gladly work with them again and recommend them without reservation.”

“I had the privilege of collaborating with Charles on developing a specialized genomic practice tool for our health authority in BC, Canada. Throughout the project, Charles served as my primary contact, handling all inquiries, technical specifications, and architectural aspects. His wealth of knowledge in system integration and technical expertise was invaluable. Charles consistently offered assistance and was approachable, even during unconventional hours. He remains my trusted resource for various inquiries. I consider myself fortunate to have worked with him and can attest to his dedication, exceptional teamwork, and leadership qualities within his team and organization.”

“Charles has made complicated tasks appear doable and delivered every single time. He's an excellent communicator and I thoroughly enjoyed working with him!”

“I am delighted to recommend Charles Keenan, a remarkably talented graduate of our Health Informatics program at IHPME/DLSPH, who demonstrated exceptional skill and dedication during his capstone project on Canadian interoperability initiatives and in our broader course in Strategic thinking. Working alongside industry experts, Charles exemplified the rare ability to grasp complex technical concepts and apply them in practical, impactful ways. Throughout his project and our course, Charles not only mastered the technical aspects of interoperability within Canadian healthcare settings but also adeptly navigated the multifaceted challenges posed by varying stakeholder needs. His capacity to synthesize technical information and translate it into effective solutions was truly impressive. Moreover, Charles's versatility in addressing both technical and human-centric problems sets him apart in the field of health informatics. His empathetic approach and deep understanding of how technology impacts healthcare professionals and patients alike make him a valuable asset to any organization. Charles's success in his Masters program is a clear indication of his readiness to make significant contributions to the health informatics field. His technical acumen, combined with his ability to engage with complex human problems, ensures he will be a driving force in advancing healthcare technology and patient care. He was one of my best students ever.”
