What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values teamwork and offers opportunities for professional growth in healthcare finance.

I am a dedicated financial specialist with extensive experience in patient billing and healthcare administration. My journey began with a solid educational foundation in Medical Assisting and Business Administration, which equipped me with the skills necessary to navigate the complexities of healthcare finance. I have a proven track record of ensuring accurate registrations and maintaining compliance with federal regulations, which has been pivotal in my roles at UF Health Shands and The Orthopedic Institute.

Throughout my career, I have honed my management skills, overseeing teams and ensuring operational efficiency in fast-paced environments. My experience as a Shift Manager at Walgreens and Assistant General Manager at Taco Bell has further developed my ability to lead teams effectively while managing inventory and customer service. I thrive in roles that challenge me to solve problems and improve processes, always aiming to enhance the patient experience and streamline operations.
