I'm a demonstrated leader devoted to enabling a team of creative professionals that support health+wellness environments consulting and design solutions with clients from across the country. I have become an expert in bringing together people, design, technology, and real estate to help clients deliver optimal care while achieving their business goals. As Director, Health+Wellness Environments for OpenSquare, I'm responsible for creating and tailoring my division's brand, thought-leadership initiatives, strategic vision, and business planning. I have a passion for story-telling and use my communication and moderating skills to provide dynamic engagements that are informative while entertaining, delivering concise messaging to our client audiences. I consult with nearly all major healthcare organizations in the region, including Kaiser Permanente, Providence St. Joseph Health, Evergreen Healthcare, Swedish, Virginia Mason, UW Medical Center, and many others. I'm seen as a trusted advisor for multiple industry best practice groups and use my diverse background from other business sectors to apply lessons learned. As a leader in health+wellness design, I have a front-line view of how technology, real estate, mergers, and the execution of services are changing communities and how people receive care. I'm a strong supporter of user-centered, evidence-based, and LEAN design practices coupled with agile work methodologies. I work with and build relationships with partners across my industry to create inspiring and thoughtful solutions delivering extraordinary user experiences.
