Dr. Jolly also worked with the National Football League for 11 Super Bowls, overseeing the coordination of emergency management, public health and medical preparedness, and stadium security. In each of these roles he coordinated across multiple areas of expertise including preparedness, digital health and technology, clinical medicine, public health, and risk communications.

As CMO, Dr. Jolly will directly support clients by providing overarching clinical leadership and direction for all public health and healthcare matters.
