What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can optimize EHR workflows, improve data quality and reporting, collaborate cross-functionally, and advance audit-ready compliance in behavioral health.

I am a Healthcare Operations & Informatics professional with 6+ years improving EHR workflows, advancing data quality, and ensuring compliance across behavioral health and acute care programs. I hold an MS in Health Information Management and Technology and active involvement in professional societies.

I have driven measurable improvements—raising documentation accuracy by 20% and reporting efficiency by 25%—by partnering with clinical, IT, and administrative teams to optimize SmartCare and Anasazi EHR workflows, lead QA reviews, and prepare compliance and audit documentation.

My strengths include data analytics and visualization (Power BI, Tableau, Excel), health data standards (HL7, FHIR, ICD-10), cross-functional collaboration, and staff training on HIPAA and documentation standards to strengthen audit readiness and patient outcomes.
