Bio
Throughout my career I have learned what my strengths are and how to leverage them to cultivate a positive environment and further the company mission. Helping teams thrive through strategic initiatives that showcase a positive, quality driven, DEIJ culture is something that I care deeply about. I have over twenty years of experience in finding innovative solutions, galvanizing teams, inspiring change, developing sustainable strategies and nurturing collaboration. Being resourceful, futuristic and efficient are skills I pride myself on.
Prior to joining Stanford, I worked at Kaiser Permanente in multiple roles, most recently as a Skilled Nursing Authorization Specialist and Quality Program Assistant. During my time in this role, I performed data mining, database maintenance and creation, statistical and financial reporting, document creation, Medicare & HMO billing approvals, quality and best practice initiatives, project management and medical supply procurement. A large part of my time was spent on analyzing, developing and fostering strategic quality processes to improve patient care and experience.
