Family Nurse Practitioner with 18+ years of complex care leadership and medicalAI-focused evaluation expertise.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Family Nurse Practitioner with 18+ years of clinical practice across complex care environments, and I’m valued for compassion-first leadership, reliability, objectivity, and sound judgment in high-stakes settings. My work spans direct care, program development, and AI integration, bringing clinical depth to goal-aligned, evidence-based treatment planning.
More recently, I serve as a Nurse Practitioner Consultant and subject matter expert in medicalAI training environments—supporting clinical data evaluation, annotation accuracy, and assessment of structured medical reasoning outputs for healthcareAI systems. I also provide medicolegal case analysis for disability and claims adjudication, and I’ve led operations and care delivery as a Clinical Services Director—building onboarding processes, training programs, SOPs, and policies for scalable, multi-state wound care delivery.
