What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead training and care-coordination work—coaching teams, ensuring compliance, and using NASCO/NCompass/Cognos tools to improve member/provider experiences and timely case resolution.

I’m a Dedicated Trainer II and healthcare professional with 10+ years of experience in care coordination, health insurance operations, and clinical support. I facilitate engaging instructor-led training for new hire cohorts and coach trainees with ongoing feedback to help them reach production readiness while reinforcing professionalism and compliance expectations.

I also bring strong member services, claims, and healthcare systems experience—supporting clinical programs, handling member/provider inquiries, and troubleshooting cases end to end. Across roles from Medical Assistant/Front Desk to Cardiac Specialist, I’ve supported accurate documentation, clinical workflows, and timely follow-ups using systems such as NASCO, NCompass, Cognos, and Filenet.
