In years prior, Charles spent 18 years in the mental health field. He served as a Community Liaison and a Regional Director of Community Relation for one of the largest mental health providers in the state of Louisiana. It was through that experience; Charles developed a heart for those in underserved communities that did not have access to care. He understood that utilizing the traditional way of providing services would not be an effective way resolving the need for a growing mental health crisis.
In August 2013, Charles pioneered the movement for Telepsychiatry services and started advance Telehealth, a telemedicine technology company. In September 2017, he decided to start a provider company and founded One Telemed with a goal in mind to improve patient outcomes.
