I am a dedicated and empathetic healthcare and customer service professional with over 10 years of experience in case management, patient access, and reimbursement support. My career has been marked by a proven ability to lead teams, train staff, and deliver exceptional service to clients and patients within complex healthcare systems. I pride myself on my efficiency and innovation in resolving issues while maintaining compliance with HIPAA and patient privacy standards.

Throughout my career, I have managed high-volume case loads and have consistently achieved exceptional service levels, including maintaining a 95%+ call quality and satisfaction score. My experience includes serving as a lead case manager, where I coordinated projects, trained staff, and resolved complex client escalations. I am passionate about improving patient access to therapy and have developed comprehensive training materials to support ongoing operations, ensuring team readiness and compliance with protocols.
