What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can lead operations and process-improvement projects using Lean Six Sigma to improve access, patient experience, and measurable clinical and financial outcomes in mission-driven healthcare organizations.

I am a Healthcare Systems Engineering specialist with academic training in Healthcare Management and a Master of Science in Healthcare Systems Engineering, focused on improving healthcare efficacy and accessibility.

I apply Lean Six Sigma and data-driven methods to streamline workflows, reduce waste, and improve productivity and cost management across hospitals and medical office buildings.

My operational leadership experience includes managing cross-functional teams, launching telehealth and clinic programs, and coordinating COVID-19 response efforts to improve access, throughput, and patient satisfaction.

I combine hands-on clinical experience with systems-level project management to deliver measurable improvements in patient experience, regulatory compliance, and operational performance.
