What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that offers growth opportunities and values collaboration.

I am an experienced executive assistant currently working in corporate treasury at Regions Financial Corporation. My role involves managing office operations, coordinating travel arrangements, and representing the company professionally to stakeholders. I thrive in fast-paced environments, making strategic decisions while ensuring confidentiality and effective communication.

Previously, I served as a Provider Contracting Consultant at United Health Group, where I negotiated contracts with healthcare providers and ensured compliance with network adequacy. My analytical skills allowed me to evaluate financial performance and optimize provider networks, contributing to improved healthcare access and quality.

With a strong background in project management and cross-departmental coordination, I am committed to enhancing operational efficiency and supporting organizational goals. My educational background in social work from Miles College and Ohio State University has equipped me with valuable interpersonal skills that I apply in my professional endeavors.
