Healthcare administration graduate researcher at Georgia State University and Atrium Health Navicent intern, developing an intercom system for urgent care coordination.

United States
Message

At Atrium Health Navicent, I assessed operations across three urgent care locations and translated interviews, workflow observations, policies, and operational data into process maps and a prioritized DMAIC improvement portfolio.

I’m developing an intercom communication system with defined use cases, role ownership, escalation protocols, pilot measures, and implementation guidance. I’m also documenting handoffs and future-state requirements for lab-result tracking and patient portal messaging.

At Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta, I evaluated patient-data exchange workflows involving Epic Care Everywhere, ADT notifications, fax, and Direct messaging. I turned the findings into a staff-facing interoperability guide and presented implementation-conscious recommendations to senior leadership.

As a Merit Graduate Research Assistant at the Institute of Health Administration, Georgia State University, I study healthcare trends and program performance using Tableau and SPSS. I also coauthored research on AI adoption and hospital performance, and co-developed the ClearPath Vista payer-navigation concept as part of a Georgia State University team.
