As a leader in Healthcare Supply Chain, I have instilled unique combination of operational and business planning expertise to evolve transformation strategies, drive revenue growth, enhance operations, and boost fiscal health across multiple acute and post-acute organizations.Having led multiple Group Purchasing Organizations (GPOs) through periods of rapid growth, I have intimate knowledge of all aspects of Group Purchasing and Supply Chain Management throughout the healthcare continuum and a deep understanding of the unique challenges facing the post-acute market. I have had direct responsibility for many aspects of the GPO business including Strategic Sourcing, Supplier Management, Account Management, Financial Operations and Budgeting, and Data Management. My sourcing and supplier relationship management include over 100 contracts built across numerous categories including Medical Supplies, Distribution, Food Service, Hospitality, Housekeeping, MRO and General Business Supplies. The sourcing events I led averaged cost savings over 10%.I attribute many of my successes and capabilities in project and business leadership to strong internal and external relationships centered on trust and productive collaboration with a focus on seeking to do the right thing. With a consultative and data-driven approach to vendor and account management, I have spearheaded and led initiatives to optimize process and reporting methodology, establish financial controls, build portfolios/contracts, ensure business viability/expansion, improve Board interactions, and enhance client experiences.I pride myself as a hands-on, servant leader who builds motivated teams with a common end goal. I take personal interest in making genuine connections and building trust at all levels.
