What I'm looking for

I seek roles leading clinical operations or program delivery in patient-centered organizations that prioritize quality improvement, interdisciplinary collaboration, and digital health innovation, with opportunities for strategic impact and professional growth.

I am a healthcare and operations leader with over twenty years of experience spanning bedside nursing, clinical program management, and operational leadership. I combine frontline ICU expertise with strategic oversight to align clinical priorities with organizational goals.

Throughout my career I have led clinical teams in high-acuity environments, implemented staffing and workflow redesigns, and guided remote nursing station operations to improve patient safety and readiness for accreditation.

As a consultant and operations lead I have translated frontline challenges into structured processes, strengthened interdepartmental coordination, and piloted staffing models that improved reliability and care continuity. I also co-led product ideation for a community-focused well-being app and advised on implementation of quality and documentation systems.

I am pursuing an Executive MBA to deepen my leadership and digital health expertise, and I bring resilient, empathetic leadership informed by lived experience and a commitment to Indigenous health, continuous improvement, and practical, patient-centered innovation.
