How We Got Here
A near-fatal wingsuiting accident in December 2023 placed founder, Dylan Avatar, in intensive care for six weeks. During his recovery, conversations with his healthcare providers revealed a universal challenge: the burden of medical credentialing.
Profoundly grateful for his second chance at life, Dylan recognized an opportunity to support the medical community. Combining his experience founding a Digital Credential Platform with his colleague Jeff Falconer’s 18-year tenure in Medical Software Sales, they created Credential Network.
Credential Network’s first mission is deeply personal:
Transform the credentialing process so healthcare providers can focus on what they do best – saving lives, just as they saved Dylan’s.
At Credential Network, we believe our work goes beyond building technology—we’re empowering professionals to do what they do best, without unnecessary friction. This mission is not just a statement—it’s our guiding north star. Every decision we make, every solution we create, and every interaction we have is aligned with this purpose.
Guiding Values

Kindness
We treat everyone—team members, customers, and stakeholders—with respect, understanding, and compassion. Kindness isn’t just a nicety; it’s a core principle that creates a culture of trust and collaboration.

Integrity
We operate with honesty, transparency, and accountability in all we do. We strive to do what’s right, even when no one is watching.

Grit
Challenges and setbacks are inevitable, but we approach them with resilience and determination. We embrace hard work and persist in the face of difficulty to achieve meaningful outcomes.

Adaptability
Technology and the world are ever-changing, and so are we. We stay agile and open-minded, adjusting our strategies and methods to meet evolving needs.

Empathy
Understanding the perspectives and experiences of others—including colleagues, clients, or end-users—is fundamental to creating solutions that genuinely make a difference.

Security
A dual responsibility—protecting both our users and our team. Safeguarding sensitive data and maintaining the integrity of our systems is an urgent and non-negotiable priority. At the same time, we are committed to fostering a place where learning, growth, and innovation thrive without fear.
