Steve Biljan has been shaped, molded, and influenced by his upbringing. His journey to evolvedMD, to leading a passionate team at the forefront of healthcare innovation, is a story of courage and resilience. With firsthand experience in the power of behavioral health interventions and the trajectory-changing work that can be done with compassionate practitioners, Steve has dedicated his career to ensuring individuals and families who need quality mental health services receive them in a way that is not only accessible but impactful.

As Managing Partner of evolvedMD, Steve oversees finance, operations, and corporate strategy while developing a team of committed clinicians and mental health activists.

Steve is a builder (or rather an “Architect” if you look at his INTJ Myers Briggs profile). He is in his natural state when he is building infrastructure, building processes, and building people. With a strong background in business development, commercial execution, and strategic planning cultivated in commercial excellence and management positions at Coloplast, Steve knows how to operationalize solutions and grow a company. You want an expert in profit-yielding execution? Turn to the guy that helped turnaround Coloplast’s U.S. subsidiary to become the most profitable publicly traded medical device company worldwide.

Intellectually curious and diverse, Steve holds a Bachelor’s Degree in International Management and Political Science from Gustavus Adolphus College, an MBA from University of Minnesota in Strategic Management and continued his studies in health policy and management at the University of California, Berkeley.

A sports enthusiast with the pedigree (but perhaps not the talent) to back up his love and focus, Steve started his career in the back office of professional Hockey where he cut (but luckily didn’t lose) his teeth in marketing, sales, and customer engagement.

And where is he most passionate? Behavioral health. A thought-leader and ardent advocate in this space, Steve is both candid and courageous in sharing his story of adversity and triumph aided by a focus on mental health.

A native Minnesotan who now splits time between San Diego and Scottsdale, you can find Steve outside in a garden or on a run, doing his best to cook an elaborate meal, or spending time with his partner and friends outside of spreadsheets and strategy sprints.
