Program Manager at State of Florida managing Epic order and results routing and supporting healthcare data transformation.
What I'm looking for
At State of Florida, I manage the Epic ETOR initiative, integrating electronic orders and results routing across outpatient and inpatient systems. I coordinate teams and oversee interfaces to third-party labs and diagnostic systems.
At Common Spirit, I managed portfolios including Epic Community Connect, Beaker, and Pharmacy, and helped manage the Common Spirit acquisitions of Dignity Health and Virgin Mason. I also spearheaded the first Common Spirit enterprise-level cross-portfolio project, Digital 1.0.
At United Health Care, I developed a resource optimization program that reduced fixed spending by 8% and variable overhead spending by 17%. I also led Salesforce.com Service Cloud and Sales Cloud projects and supported healthcare payment and infrastructure programs.
Earlier, at nThrive and McKesson, I managed project and program portfolios, established PMO processes, and worked on healthcare software deployments. I’m PMP-certified and trained in Agile methods, with experience in project execution, portfolio management, and budget analysis.
