John Schweitzer
VP, Artificial Intelligence Systems
Background:
John Schweitzer builds the intelligence layer beneath BrainBoosters. As VP of Artificial Intelligence Systems, he designs HIPAA-compliant AI and data systems that connect a community's operating data into a secure, custom warehouse, so the impact of the program can be measured against the outcomes that matter most: sales and occupancy, resident health, and return on investment.
This is what turns Scientific Wellness into proof. By joining BrainBoosters member data with a community's financial, clinical, and engagement systems, John can show not just that members are participating, but what that participation does to move-ins, resident wellbeing, retention, and the bottom line. It is the difference between describing value and demonstrating it.
His role does not end at the build. John continuously interprets platform and operator data, across systems and across communities, to customize and improve BrainBoosters for each population it serves and to help the communities themselves run smarter. The program gets sharper the longer it runs, and the data is what makes it so.
A financial economics graduate from SMU, John has spent his career building custom data and AI systems that cut through noise and prove results in complex, regulated environments. At BrainBoosters, that discipline becomes the engine of continuous improvement: outcomes measured, trusted, and always getting better.
Background:
Carmen Benavides is a brain health professional specializing in behavior change and cognitive wellness. Her work is driven by both professional experience and personal connection to the impact of cognitive decline.
After witnessing her grandmother’s journey with Alzheimer’s disease, and the profound effect it had on her family, Carmen became deeply committed to understanding how cognitive decline might be prevented. This path led her to her role as a Navigator for the Alzheimer’s Association’s U.S. POINTER Study, where she supported individuals in implementing evidence-based lifestyle interventions to reduce dementia risk.
In her work, Carmen draws on a multidisciplinary background spanning psychology, communication sciences, and patient-centered care. She is particularly focused on helping individuals translate complex brain health research into practical, sustainable habits that support long-term well-being.
