Healthcare operations executive with more than two decades of leadership spanning hospital systems, outpatient and long‑term care environments, occupational/industrial medicine, and academic settings. I specialize in building integrated, mission‑aligned operating models that connect clinical excellence, workforce systems, program delivery, and financial stewardship across complex, multi‑site organizations. I have held senior leadership roles with enterprise‑level accountability, including President & CEO and hospital Director of Rehabilitation positions, with responsibility for P&L, budgeting and forecasting, staffing and scheduling models, contracting, quality and patient‑safety systems, and day‑to‑day operational execution. My work consistently focuses on translating clinical standards, governance decisions, and strategic priorities into reliable daily operations that improve access, quality, and sustainability. My leadership approach is values‑driven and people‑centered. I have led multidisciplinary teams of clinicians and administrators, developed leaders through coaching and accountability, and partnered closely with physicians, executive teams, and boards. I am especially effective in environments that require balancing growth with stewardship, and innovation with regulatory and ethical responsibility. In addition to operational leadership, I bring a strong academic and governance perspective. I hold a PhD in Health Sciences, have authored peer‑reviewed research, served as adjunct faculty in Doctor of Physical Therapy programs, and currently serve as an elected Treasurer for a statewide professional association, providing fiduciary oversight and financial governance. I am particularly drawn to mission‑driven, nonprofit, faith‑based, and global health organizations where healthcare delivery serves a broader purpose of dignity, access, and human flourishing. Areas of focus: • Healthcare Operations Management • Integrated Care Delivery • Clinical Operations Leadership • Financial Stewardship • Quality & Patient Safety
