Message

At US Oncology Network, I lead multi-state HR operations across joint venture business units, aligning policies and compliance with systemwide initiatives. I also develop HR Business Partners and specialists through coaching on performance management and employee relations.

At Millennium Physicians | SSKS, I led enterprise-wide initiatives that reduced turnover by 17%. I also implemented compensation structures and oversaw the rollout of an ATS platform.

At Corpus Christi Rehabilitation Hospital | Ernest Health, I launched workforce development programs, including a nursing preceptor initiative that reduced nursing turnover by 15%. I also led a workers’ compensation project that reduced claims by 32%.

Earlier, at Mirador | S.Q.L.C. Corporation, I implemented succession planning and retention initiatives that reduced turnover by 16%. At Hospital Corporation of America (HCA), I supported a redesigned orientation that reduced turnover by 8%.
