What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead clinical education, quality improvement, and enterprise healthcare programs that strengthen clinician competency, regulatory compliance, and patient care outcomes.

At Amedisys Hospice, I lead clinical education and quality assurance initiatives that align educational strategy with business priorities, regulatory requirements, and evidence-based practice standards. I led implementation of CMS HOPE initiatives contributing to national-leading adoption performance.

I also spearheaded a Peer Mentor Program to improve new-hire retention and onboarding outcomes, while supporting Pediatric Hospice and Dementia Care Connect+ enterprise initiatives.

My background includes after-hours hospice operations, utilization review at Humana, and high-acuity post-anesthesia care at Norton Audubon Hospital. I bring an RN and CHPN perspective to workforce development, quality improvement, and compassionate patient care.
