Trusted product innovation leader with a focus on simplifying the health care experience and improving overall health. I leverage strategic and creative thinking to deliver solutions to overcome the most pressing challenges of an overly complex and heavily regulated industry. I’ve provided exceptional leadership to high-performing, cross-functional teams, through the development and execution of product roadmaps, portfolio management and new product delivery at two of the largest health payors in the U.S. Strategically partnered with third party companies to supplement digital and clinical capabilities. Achieved membership and profitability growth through product expansion, lifecycle management and strong go-to-market planning. Along with a master's degree in health policy and management from Johns Hopkins University, I bring additional experience in national accounts sales, account management and policy development at leading health companies including Elevance, Humana, Aetna, and Group Health Cooperative (Kaiser).Always happy to connect for networking and opportunities.
