Andrew Brimer
Engineer, Entrepreneur, Builder
I turn ideas into reality — building at the intersection of engineering, entrepreneurship, and design.
I work at Wellinks as Senior Director of Engineering, focusing on data, architecture, and analytics.
Previously, I co-founded Sparo Health, where we developed Wing® — the first FDA-cleared smartphone spirometer — and Lift Pulmonary Rehab, a virtual platform for people with COPD. Sparo was acquired by Wellinks in 2022, and I joined Wellinks to carry the work forward. I also briefly returned to my alma mater to lead the School of Medicine's role in a university-wide transformation, modernizing critical HR & finance systems and retiring legacy platforms.

Explorations
I enjoy composing and playing piano, trombone, ukulele, and creating electronic music. Outside of music, I tinker with 3D printing and electronics, explore astronomy and architecture, and experiment with procedural simulation and game design. I live near Boulder, Colorado with my partner Allie and love spending time in the mountains.
