The SleepTech Talk co-host connected with the mail-order oral appliance therapy company as a patient first.
Daybreak, a provider of at-home sleep apnea diagnosis and mail-order custom oral appliance therapy workflows, has named Robert Miller, RPSGT, as its first-ever senior vice president of commercial strategy. The appointment marks a pivotal next step as the company expands its national presence.
Initially connecting with Daybreak as a patient, Miller brings more than 30 years of expertise in the sleep and respiratory healthcare space. As a registered polysomnographic technologist, he understands both the lived experience of undergoing sleep-disorder diagnostics and the clinical collaboration required to identify and manage conditions such as obstructive sleep apnea.
“We are delighted to welcome him to our senior leadership team, where his expertise and perspective will be instrumental in advancing the continued growth of our commercial medical division,” says Daybreak co-founder Wesley Lones, in a release.
Before Daybreak, Miller played a role in leading operations and business development for companies including MedBridge and, most recently, Apria, where he was vice president of sleep and respiratory business.
“My own journey—using GLP-1 therapy to improve health, then discovering lasting relief with an oral appliance—has shown me firsthand how integrated, patient-centric solutions can change lives. Daybreak’s innovative approach empowers undiagnosed patients and those intolerant to PAP therapy with accessible, effective alternatives that truly improve outcomes,” Miller says in a release. “The sleep apnea therapy landscape is evolving rapidly, with exciting advancements in pharmaceuticals and surgical options. I’m eager to drive Daybreak’s commercial growth, ensuring more patients discover the rest they deserve.”
Miller co-hosts the podcast SleepTech Talk, where he regularly explores emerging trends and breakthroughs shaping the future of sleep. He also maintains a strong professional presence with over 25,000 LinkedIn followers.
This appointment propels Daybreak’s mission to modernize obstructive sleep apnea testing and treatment, aligning with Miller’s commitment to advancing sleep medicine and passion for innovation through technology and patient-centric care.
