Evidence In Motion (EIM), a member of the Confluent Health Family, is thrilled to welcome David Eby as its new Chief Executive Officer (CEO) effective February 10, 2025.
David brings over 20 years of executive-level leadership experience in higher education, with an extraordinary track record of driving growth, innovation, and operational excellence. His proven ability to lead in fast-growth and established environments positions him perfectly to guide EIM into an exciting and impactful future.
His career reflects a deep commitment to higher education, holding leadership roles that span strategy, operations, marketing, growth and student services. Most recently, Eby was Chief Operating Officer (COO) of Project Kitty Hawk, an organization solely focused on making higher education accessible to state residents in partnership with the University of North Carolina. David successfully built the organization from the ground up, transitioning it from concept to reality. Under his leadership, Project Kitty Hawk formed key partnerships with universities, launched 14 programs, and served over 600 students in just its first year.
David has also been a driving force behind some of the most transformative initiatives to modernize education, including Thinkful (acquired by Chegg Skills), HotChalk (acquired by Noodle), and Education Sales Management (acquired by Xerox). At Southern New Hampshire University (SNHU), he spearheaded unprecedented growth, as Chief Marketing Officer. He has a keen ability to scale operations, develop innovative marketing strategies, and foster collaboration across stakeholders to amplify impact. He has a proven track record building high-performing teams, driving operational excellence, student services from enrollment to retention, and fostering strategic partnerships.
Through its work powering graduate degrees in partnership with colleges and universities across the nation, EIM is addressing a national crisis of a health care workforce shortage which is integral to Confluent Health’s overall mission. ”At Confluent Health, we believe that stronger education leads to stronger clinicians, and stronger clinicians drive better patient outcomes,” said Dr. Kristi Henderson, DNP, FAAN, CEO of Confluent Health. “David embodies our mission and values, and we look forward to this exciting new chapter under David’s leadership. His expertise will not only strengthen EIM’s mission but will also elevate the impact we have on the musculoskeletal health profession and, ultimately, the patients we serve. We are thrilled to welcome David to the team and look forward to the future he will help build.”
As he joins EIM’s community of education innovators, David brings his passion, expertise, and vision to enhance the company’s impact in health care education. “I believe that EIM has a strong foundation to build on and it is fueled by a meaningful mission. Innovation and impact are in EIM’s DNA, and I’m committed to strengthening our ability to deliver cutting-edge programs that transform lives and create lasting change with our higher education partners. I’m excited for the journey ahead as we push boundaries, unlock new opportunities, and build something truly special together.”
