ContextMedia:Health Adds Dave Sheehan as Chief Marketing Officer

NEW YORK, July 13, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- ContextMedia:Health, the leader in health information services at the point of care, announced today that Dave Sheehan joined as Chief Marketing Officer to lead marketing and communications, and drive the rapid growth of the firm's marketing divisions in New York City and Chicago.

Sheehan, who has been a fixture in the advertising agency industry in Chicago, brings to ContextMedia:Health a deep marketing management and communications background. His client experience includes CPG, retail and financial services. Additionally, in the past 10 years he has developed a portfolio of leading healthcare clients, including Healthcare Services Corp (Blue Cross Blue Shield of Illinois), Advocate Healthcare, Indiana University Healthcare, Roche and others.

In his 14-year tenure as President of HY Connect, Sheehan developed the agency from a startup office to one that generated nearly $180 million in billings. He then sold it to Myelin Communications, a holding company wholly owned by Baird Capital, in June 2015.  Prior to joining HY Connect in 2002, Sheehan started and built another full-service agency that he sold in 1997, and spent several years at Campbell-Mithun in Chicago in various senior account management positions. He has a history with ContextMedia:Health, having served in various advisory roles for the company.

"My Co-Founder, Shradha Agarwal, and I have had the privilege to work with and learn from Dave Sheehan, who has served ContextMedia:Health as an advisor for the past seven years," said Rishi Shah, CEO and Founder of ContextMedia:Health. "From the early days of ContextMedia:Health, Shradha and I remarked to one another how honored we would be to have Dave on our team as a leader. Today, we couldn't be more excited to begin that chapter." 

The addition of Sheehan to ContextMedia:Health's team is only one of the firm's recent high-profile hires from the tech, media and advertising communities. Most recently, ContextMedia:Health added Jed Cohen, former Co-Founder and COO at RocketHub as Director of Operations for its New York office.
