What I'm looking for

I'm motivated by mission-driven healthcare work that expands access to quality care for vulnerable populations.

At Highmark Wholecare, I served as lead budget analyst for forecasting Pennsylvania Medicaid expectations for a risk-bearing managed care plan. I built and maintained financial models and analyzed revenue, gross margin, and operating trends to explain their forward-looking implications.

At MDwise / McLaren Medical Group, I analyzed state Medicaid rate changes and their financial impact, and partnered with outside organizations to redesign reinsurance models. I also developed standardized reporting and worked with IT to automate processes including Delivery Kick Payments.
