Dynamic healthcare executive with proven success at the largest healthcare organizations in the country: the US NAVY, TRICARE, the VA, UnitedHealthcare, and Elevance Health. They've all taught me many things, but my main takeaway from the past 25 years is change is inevitable and that means innovation is essential.I've been committed to innovation throughout my career, from the rollout of EMRs to the introduction of AI. The complexity of depth of healthcare makes these transformative technologies slow to integrate, but hopefully we have reached an inflection point and will allow the pace of change to increase.There is so much potential to improve the delivery of high-quality care along the entire spectrum of healthcare. I am committed to enhancing healthcare delivery through strategic leadership, clinical excellence, and a data-driven approach.How will we rally together to turn this behemoth ship when we can barely get our patients the basic preventive care?The answer is the common mission. I think the operative word here is "common". We need a common mission that we all understand and believe in. Perhaps this starts with the triple aim: care experience, population health, and cost per capita. To accomplish this we need good people. I've cultivated a reputation for being a team player, fostering a culture of collaboration, and innovating. My leadership style is characterized by a genuine commitment to building a positive work culture, where diversity of thought and inclusion are paramount. I've managed and inspired incredible teams that embrace change and achieve collective success, always with an eye on high-quality, efficient care.As a thought healthcare leader focused on moving the industry forward, my engagement with healthcare private equity and startup development has honed my ability to identify emerging trends and also enabled me to contribute actively to shaping the future of healthcare.I am driven to improve healthcare outcomes at scale, leveraging my unique blend of clinical insight, strategic investment acumen, and technological foresight. Let's connect and explore how we can collaborate to advance the healthcare ecosystem, driving towards a future where technology and care delivery converge to create a healthier world for all.
