Mack Dacre

I'm a data-driven operations leader with the mind of a healthcare strategist.

My professional journey has taken me from patient counseling as a Doctor of Pharmacy to building value strategies for pharma clients to launching and scaling warehouse operations for a new startup. The common thread? I love building and optimizing complex systems.

This passion for strategic planning and execution is the same drive that gets me into the mountains. As a mountaineer , I know that success is about data, preparation, and managing risk—the same principles I apply to building efficient, data-driven supply chains.

I'm always open to connecting with fellow professionals passionate about: 

• Data-driven ops (Python, SQL, GIS) 
• Healthcare & health economics 
• Sustainability initiatives

Let's connect if you're building something great, or just want to swap stories about the best routes in the Wasatch.
