Every step of my healthcare journey has been guided by a profound commitment to patient care and operational excellence. Starting as an RN and becoming an Adult Nurse Practitioner, I transitioned into healthcare operations in the startup space in 2014, specializing in chronic and serious illnesses. I aimed to influence healthcare policy and delivery methods, recognizing the need for systemic improvement to better serve individuals, both now and in the future. My leadership has not only transformed company’s healthcare delivery and saved millions, but also touched countless lives through compassionate and strategic care. Throughout my career, I’ve led teams to achieve remarkable outcomes. A few highlights include: ► Led startup to become the nation’s largest palliative care program, leading to a large health plan acquisition. ► Increased productivity by 50% and generated $8M in new revenue through innovative mentorship programs. ► Captured cost savings and improved care, cutting unnecessary hospital admissions by 50% and saving over $5M. ► Pioneered an HIV FFS program within a value-based organization, expanding access to HIV care to ~7K individuals. ► Propelled multi-state palliative care from 21 to 31 programs, while reducing costs $500K and boosting revenue 20%. I thrive in a dynamic healthcare environment characterized by rapid change, adeptly navigating new regulations and reshaping operational strategies to drive impactful outcomes. My career is marked by a consistent ability to pivot roles seamlessly, ensuring success in achieving strategic objectives through a unique blend of adaptability and resilience. I take pride in my transformational and servant leadership style, leading by example and fostering continuous improvement. I’m dedicated to making a difference, whether it's through building clinical models from the ground up or driving strategic initiatives that enhance patient care and operational efficiency. Beyond my professional endeavors, I am deeply involved in volunteer work, contributing to causes like the American Lung Association's Fight for Air Climb and Teen Cancer America, and organizing charity auctions with the Wishlist Foundation during Pearl Jam tours (I’ve seen Pearl Jam 62 times). I also enjoy traveling to off-the-beaten-path destinations, like quaint towns in various countries around the world.
