Tactile Systems Technology Inc., a developer of medical devices for the treatment of chronic diseases at home, has appointed Brent A. Moen as chief financial officer (CFO). Tactile Medical’s current CFO, Lynn L. Blake, has resigned from that role for personal reasons and not due to any disagreement with the company on any matter, including related to the company’s operations, policies, practices, financial reporting or controls. Blake will continue to advise the company in a consulting role until March 2019 in order to facilitate a smooth transition.
“I’m very pleased to announce Brent’s appointment and welcome him to Tactile Medical,” said Gerald R.

I look forward to his strategic insight and future contributions as a member of the executive leadership team as we continue to scale our business.”
"I would also like to thank Lynn for the valuable contributions she has made since joining Tactile Medical in April 2016,” Mattys continued. “Her leadership and expertise helped Tactile Medical complete our IPO, successfully transition to the public markets and support Tactile Medical’s subsequent growth and expansion of our shareholder base.”
Moen most recently served as CFO of Entellus Medical Inc., a publicly held medical device company, from May 2016 until the company’s acquisition by Stryker Corporation in February 2018. Prior to joining Entellus Medical, Moen served as executive vice president and CFO of ABRA Auto Body & Glass LP, an automotive collision repair company, from November 2013 to May 2015.
