As a forward-thinking executive leader, I have more than 20 years of experience bringing order to chaos and a reputation for grace under fire, endless curiosity, and a strategic mindset. Known for asking insightful questions, I communicate effectively and clearly to articulate complex ideas in an easy-to-digest manner, adjusting my style to suit the audience. I apply a thoughtful, supportive, and approachable leadership style with an entrepreneurial mindset to consistently deliver more than expected. Key Qualifications: I am an expert on evidence-based medicine and clinical guideline development. Areas of expertise include behavioral health, genetic testing, specialty medications, outpatient care, and Workers’ Compensation. I remain current in industry trends, challenges, and thought leadership through continued involvement in professional organizations, heath care, and health policy forums.
