COMMISSIONER

Robert Angrisano

Prior to his appointment to the Board of Commissioners in May 2026, Robert Angrisano served as the public representative on the hospital district’s Finance Committee, where he gained deep familiarity with the district’s financial condition, operational structure, and future expansion plans, including the HUB project.

Professionally, Robert has served as President and CEO of a publicly traded company and spent more than 30 years in the high-technology industry. Most recently, he oversaw a billion-dollar division of a major software company with teams across North and South America. He brings extensive experience in executive leadership, financial oversight, and governance across both public and private sectors, including financial management, personnel and budget oversight, and regulatory compliance in publicly accountable organizations.

His public service background spans more than 36 years as a volunteer Firefighter and Emergency Medical Technician, a role in which he remains active today. He also served for 15 years as Chairperson and Commissioner for a Fire District. In that role, he was responsible for ensuring compliance with many of the same rules and regulations that govern a public Hospital District.

Robert has spent many years advocating for individuals with physical and mental challenges and led a group that helped redefine the paratransit system in King County.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, when vaccinations were extremely difficult to access, he worked with the Department of Health to coordinate and host several vaccination clinics at the Fall City and Snoqualmie Fire Departments, helping vaccinate several thousand people.

For more than a decade, Robert has been employed in a medical capacity at a regional hospital, serving in both the Cardiac Unit and the Emergency Department.

Robert considers it an honor to serve the community as a Commissioner for the Hospital District.
