Over a 30 year career at Verizon Communications, Inc., he held a variety of financial leadership roles, most recently serving as Senior Vice President of Corporate Development and President & Chief Investment Officer of Verizon Ventures, where he spearheaded more than $100 billion in strategic transactions and corporate restructurings, and helped establish Verizon as a market leader in new growth segments such as IoT, digital media, and telematics.

John is a proven leader with a remarkable track record of driving shareholder value, business performance, and financial impact at scale,” said Joseph DeVivo, President, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Butterfly Network. “John’s expertise in expanding global businesses, executing transformative transactions, and aligning financial strategy with growth makes him the ideal partner for Butterfly as we enter an exciting next phase of growth.”

Doherty commented, “Butterfly has built strong momentum with a successful product launch, a strengthened balance sheet, and a defined path toward breakeven, creating an attractive foundation for long-term value creation for shareholders. I’m excited to join at this pivotal stage and to help advance that momentum through continued disciplined investment, strategic portfolio management, and sustainable growth initiatives.”

The Company’s Interim Chief Financial Officer, Megan Carlson, will conclude her service in that capacity and return to her position as Chief Accounting Officer and Senior Vice President of Finance & Accounting, where she will continue to serve as the Company’s principal accounting officer.

DeVivo added, “On behalf of the Company and our leadership team, I want to thank Megan for stepping up and providing outstanding leadership as Interim CFO during a critical period. Her deep expertise and commitment have been invaluable in keeping us on course. We’re fortunate to have her as an integral part of the leadership team going forward.”
