I am accountable for aligning quality, finance, service, and culture priorities across the organization, and recently led an operational transformation that resulted in 38% revenue growth while staying favorable to budget.My leadership approach centers on clarity, accountability, and partnership. I believe long-term strategy must be embedded into daily operations through disciplined governance, meaningful KPIs, and empowered leaders. I am known for building strong executive and physician partnerships, developing leadership talent, and removing barriers so teams can perform at their best.Earlier in my career, I held senior operations and Lean leadership roles at Mount Carmel Health System, Honeywell, and Parker Hannifin, giving me a unique cross-industry perspective that blends healthcare complexity with manufacturing discipline and scalability. I bring deep experience in P&L ownership, enterprise transformation, growth and capital expansion, and change leadership.I am energized by opportunities where operational excellence, growth, and culture are equally valued—and where leaders are expected to both think strategically and execute decisively.Currently exploring Chief Operating Officer and VP of Operations opportunities where enterprise execution and leadership development are critical to success.
