My extensive background has equipped me with a wealth of knowledge in skilled interventions, management, and talent acquisition, allowing me to effectively contribute to patient care and team dynamics.

Throughout my career, I have held significant roles such as Rehab Director in both Independent Living/Assisted Living/Memory Care and Long-Term Care facilities. I excel in managing caseloads, collaborating with interdisciplinary teams, and ensuring customer service excellence. My leadership experience includes overseeing multiple facilities, enhancing team growth through effective recruitment, and implementing patient care plans tailored to individual needs.
