What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values patient care and operational efficiency, with opportunities for growth and development.

I am a dedicated healthcare professional with extensive experience in ophthalmic technology and practice management. My journey began as a JCAHPO Certified Ophthalmic Technician, and I have since evolved into roles that emphasize operational efficiency and patient care. I thrive in dynamic environments, ensuring that both patient needs and practice metrics are met with excellence.

Throughout my career, I have successfully managed day-to-day operations in various healthcare settings, including my role as General Manager at MyEyeDr. and as a Surgical Coordinator at CEENTA. My commitment to compliance and education has led me to initiate and update compliance programs, ensuring adherence to CMS/HHS/OIG guidelines. I take pride in mentoring new hires and developing training paths that enhance the skills of current technicians, fostering a culture of continuous improvement.
