Blog Post: Mobile Data Designed For Your Health

Posted on by Chris Murman

As a fellow diabetic, I was encouraged by this post by Don Hon who was diagnosed in early 2012. Wanting to make the best out of his situation, he equipped himself with as many data-gathering devices as possible and hack his body’s new disease. Thanks to wearable devices such as Fuel and FitBit (and many more in the coming year I believe), he can make the most informed decision on how to manage his life.

Even more encouraging is the blog Databetic, a blog by an MPS candidate and big data developer trying to release tools for their fellow diabetics. These guys are worth a read as well.

Our lives are being enriched at break-neck speed by technology. There is another side to this sword, but when used effectively there is so much to be gained by utilizing software and the ever-increasing integration with devices.

My first job out of college was as a weekend sports anchor at an NBC affiliate, and as a journalist I've not lost my love of telling the stories of others. Each interaction is an opportunity to learn what makes you unique and understand perspective. If we get to know each other more on a personal level, it would make the tough conversations easier to have. The work I'm most focused on is connecting the dots in tech companies. Finding the most human aspect of technical solutions. Coaching, training, and transformation are about removing the friction organizations unintentionally create. The things that teams create can be amazing. My part of that recipe is helping them do so in the best and most fun environment. I'm also many other things. An author of a book on mobile applications. A contributor to the Agile Uprising Podcast. Blog writer of my namesake. Speaker and organizer at over a dozen conferences around the world. A proud husband, father, runner, chef, and as an advocate for the marginalized in the world.
