As an accomplished healthcare strategist with ten years of experience, I drive operational excellence by incorporating competitive analysis, market projections, and consumer demand into short-/long-term planning related to corporate development, strategic partnerships, M&As, and organic growth. I am known for blending business acumen and data analytics to examine both the big picture and functional details in order to define corporate direction and shape decision-making.Having influenced M&As and organic growth, post-acquisition integration, and start-up activities, I excel in leading during periods of change and transition, including corporate restructuring, reorganization, and community partnerships. As Director of Strategic Services for Spartanburg Regional Healthcare System, I guide decision-making while monitoring compliance, legislative impact, and competitive/market trends. Since 2015, the company has realized hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue growth and I have been proud to be a part of that success.
