@valenciaturner1
Operations and compliance leader streamlining regulatory workflows for scale.
What I'm looking for
I am an operations and compliance professional with over 10 years of experience building infrastructure for high-growth healthcare and technology organizations. I specialize in converting manual, high-volume workflows into scalable, documented systems that preserve compliance and data integrity.
My work bridges complex regulatory requirements and team execution by developing clear functional logic and SOP libraries that enable rapid, consistent scaling. I have managed multi-state portfolios and maintained strong state board relationships while achieving high on-time delivery rates.
I have led initiatives that reduced incident frequency, accelerated processing speed, and shortened committee review times through targeted workflow design and automation—most recently implementing Jira triage triggers that cleared backlogs and improved throughput by 60%.
I deliver measurable operational gains through process mapping, vendor sourcing in restricted regions, and performance reporting cadences that improve leadership visibility and resource allocation. I hire in to create repeatable, auditable systems that keep teams compliant while increasing velocity.
