What I'm looking for
I am an experienced Health Promotion Specialist with a robust background in program management, health communication, and public health. My expertise lies in developing and managing comprehensive wellness programs for large organizations, where I have consistently improved health outcomes and employee engagement. I thrive in complex, matrixed environments and excel at building relationships with both internal and external stakeholders.
In my current role at Atlantic Health System, I lead the research, development, implementation, and evaluation of wellness programs that serve over 22,000 employees. One of my key achievements includes spearheading a virtual intensive health behavior change program that resulted in a 3% average weight reduction over eight weeks for more than 500 employees. I also successfully increased biometric screening participation from 40% to 60% year-over-year through strategic communication and engagement initiatives.
My commitment to health promotion is reflected in my ability to manage vendor partnerships and facilitate large-scale events and campaigns. I am passionate about creating impactful health initiatives that foster a culture of well-being and engagement within organizations.
