I am a highly organized healthcare operations professional with 14+ years of experience at Baylor College of Medicine, focused on coordinating cross-functional teams, maintaining operational systems, and improving workflows in fast-paced clinical and research environments. I led a workflow redesign that cut diagnostic turnaround from 24–48 hours to under 6 hours and managed processing of 150–300 high-complexity diagnostic samples weekly, while training staff and maintaining audit-ready documentation.

I have deep experience in regulatory compliance, quality management systems, and stakeholder communication across leadership, clinical, and research teams. I build structured documentation systems, support deviation investigations, and implement process improvements that sustain high-volume operations and reproducible research outputs.
