What I'm looking for

I seek senior healthcare leadership roles where I can drive value-based care, revenue-cycle improvement, and quality through data-driven operations, technology integration, and collaborative teams.

I am a strategic LEAN Six Sigma–certified healthcare executive with dual master’s degrees in healthcare business administration and advanced practice nursing. I bring deep clinical experience as a former hospitalist nurse practitioner and a strong business acumen.

I have led national hospital-based physician management programs and revenue cycle activities across acute, post-acute, and telehealth settings. My operational scope has included oversight of 40+ facilities, 20,000+ patients, and more than 1,200 clinical staff, with full responsibility for health services budgets up to $115MM.

I have a track record of delivering measurable results: transitioning healthcare services for 10 facilities in 60 days, developing Pharmacy Reporting dashboards in Power BI, creating standardized operating and financial reports, increasing regional patient-service reimbursement by 25%, and originating new contracts that grew division revenue by ~20%.

I currently provide consulting services focused on financial/revenue cycle management, technology integration, and quality improvement. I lead with data-driven decision making, stakeholder collaboration, and a focus on sustainable, value-based care improvements.
