As a patient-focused Global Healthcare Program & Operations Leader and advocate for improved and accessible healthcare across care-constrained regions serving marginalized populations, I offer 15 years of successful experience developing and managing short and long-term medical and healthcare programs, establishing clinics and managing medical teams, partnerships and resources around the world.My clinical experience spans across diverse settings and geography, and my unique background combines clinical nursing care, public health, needs assessment, operations leadership, clinician training, and outreach skills, allowing me to quickly scale up operations and deliver critical healthcare services while empowering and educating communities to take ownership of new skills, facilities and resources.I have a background launching and managing high-impact programs and establishing evidence-based quality measures to address specific population healthcare needs, documenting and reporting on outcomes. I have nearly two decades of experience as a registered nurse, and have been responsible for driving integration of programs and services to deliver a higher quality of care for patients and deliver on efficiencies and cost savings.Able to establish rapport and trust, I work side by side with native clinical teams and volunteers, navigating red tape and cultural barriers, building relationships with local leaders, procuring needed supplies, medications, and support to accomplish goals.An effective bilingual communicator, I am skilled in working with local, regional, and national agencies to secure approvals and licensing, and have a reputation as a creative and collaborative problem-solver, with a specialty background in global women's healthcare.Interested in networking, new opportunities to engage with like minded global healthcare leaders, and continuous growth and learning.
