Chief Financial Officer at CyraCom Language Solutions


CyraCom is the leading provider of language interpreter services in several verticals, direct healthcare being the largest. Whether in-person or via phone, video, mobile app, or written text, CyraCom bridges communication gaps for various organizations that need rapid access to language assistance, supports over two hundred languages and operates 24/7. CyraCom affects the lives of millions in the United States by connecting those with limited English proficiency to services they need. As Chief Financial Officer, I am proud to be a member of the executive team.

I, myself, hail from the west of Ireland. I graduated from GMIT with Bachelors in Accounting and Finance, and then immigrated to The Netherlands to begin my career at Cannondale Bicycle Corporation. After a ten-year period in The Netherlands, I relocated to Connecticut in 2004. It was there that I met my wife Janet and together we have three children: Greg, Chelsea and Phillip. After several years at Cannondale, I changed careers and joined a mortgage diligence firm in 2007. Clayton specialized in MBS and mortgage servicing (2008 was a very interesting year!) Nevertheless, I remained at Clayton until 2013 when I was recruited to join Health Care Navigator in a financial consulting role. Health Care Navigator is an asset manager of several distinct companies in the long-term care industry. In 2017, my family and I made the bold decision to relocate from Connecticut to Gilbert, Arizona. Frankly, we could not be happier. Living in the Valley has afforded me the opportunity to enjoy the outdoors and hone my golf skills year round. Thankfully, I do not miss raking leaves or shoveling snow.

I would like to thank Bill Miller for introducing me to AzBL. I attended an executive social and was subsequently hooked on AzBL’s mission. It was refreshing to meet fellow peers in the community who share like-minded ideals. I look forward to meeting and connecting with fellow members over the coming months.
