Jacques Stroud Interview

Welcome to Episode 9 of Software Tech Talks – How the Pro’s Build Reliable Products. Today’s featured guest is Jacques Stroud, the Founder of Docfully Healthcare – which is a healthcare startup that uses a software system to deliver telemedicine services to the elderly and disabled in their home. Jacques has a Bachelor of Applied Sciences degree from Chicago State University, and he’s also a certified Nursing Assistant & a personal trainer – so he’s widely experienced & passionate about helping people improve their overall health. Jacques started Docfully because he saw a great need going unfulfilled – and he decided to do something about it. I met Jacques at CyberTECH, a high tech incubator in downtown San Diego, where I served as a Mentor to Entrepreneurs in Residence. Jacques and his team requested our support with Risk Management for the design and implementation of their software system, so Advantu’s Director of Operations & Software Engineering, Ron Kutsch, and I worked with them for several quarters, and it’s been an amazing experience for everyone. Ron is still helping Jacques & his team with occasional technology questions and we couldn’t be prouder of the work they’re doing. Jacques is highly motivated, h e doesn’t let business or technology roadblocks get in his way – and his tenacity is one of the biggest reasons why I believe he will be highly successful. We asked Jacques to describe his experiences as a caretaker, as well as his #1 recommended book and the best way to contact him. Book: The Four Steps to the Epiphany by Steve Blank His business website: www.docfully.net Contact: stroudjacques@gmail.com Favorite quote: “What we do in life – echoes I eternity…” ** Remember – send us an email request for Jacques List: “The Top 5 Ways to see if your Blood Sugar is Safe” – send (subject) Jacques to support@advantu.com - and we’ll send it to you for free! **
