Meet our Founders

Melanie Irwin Smith, MBA, RD, CDA
Vice President of Operations and Founder

Melanie founded Chiron Data Systems with seven years of health care experience focused in diabetes patient and program management. Melanie's launch into diabetes education began with her establishment of a diabetes management program for All Saints Medical Center in Fort Worth, Texas. Following a merger with Baylor Health Care System (BHCS), the sponsoring organization of one of the largest multi-site diabetes programs currently holding ADA Recognition, Melanie's program evolved. Under her direction and management, the Baylor All Saints program quickly became one of BHCS's largest diabetes centers. Prior to her departure in 2005, the diabetes center had served over 2000 patients referred by over 150 physicians. Melanie's tenure in the health care and diabetes fields afford her insight into the unique needs of diabetes education programs. It was with this insider's view that Melanie generated the idea for DiaMed. After earning a Bachelor of Science in Dietetics from the University of Texas at Austin, Melanie completed her Masters in Business Administration at Southern Methodist University's Cox School of Business in 2006 where she was elected to Beta Gamma Sigma, the highest academic honor awarded to business students.
