I have held a variety of technical and management positions, primarily in private industry, throughout my career. I joined the higher education ranks at the University of Illinois in the fall of 2013 and am currently Assistant Director of Health Information Systems at the University of Illinois Veterinary Teaching Hospital.We listen, we design, we develop, we support an outstanding Electronic Medical Record system for our faculty, staff, students and amazing patients!!! I am truly blessed with a phenomenal development team and a supportive hospital director office!!I highly value and purposefully develop strong professional relationships. I am a firm believer in cultivating a positive team-oriented work environment and consider it my duty to assist my team members in developing their skills. My proudest moments as a leader stem from the successes of those whom I have had the pleasure managing.
