What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead healthcare operations and nursing teams where I can improve quality, patient flow, workforce retention, and community health while developing future leaders.

At UM St. Joseph Medical Center, I lead 177 FTEs and nine cost centers across the Heart Institute and Emergency Services, including cardiac catheterization, stroke, observation, telemetry, rehabilitation, and emergency care.

I reduced departmental turnover by 30% and LWBS by 50% through shared governance, stay interviews, high-reliability communication, and redesigned patient flow. I also lead workforce development that has improved program retention by more than 50%.

Over 13 years at The George Washington University Hospital, I progressed from staff nurse to Director, leading 110 FTEs, a $13 million operating budget, and emergency department quality, safety, and regulatory priorities. My teams reduced commodity spending by $300,000, increased SBIRT screening by 80%, and reduced falls by 25%.

I build practical systems that strengthen patient outcomes, workforce development, and operational performance across the care continuum. I’m committed to developing future healthcare leaders while improving access, safety, and community health.
