About

I joined Optum because I genuinely believe in the mission to help people live healthier lives. In my role, I have the opportunity to connect exceptional physicians with Optum and our Care Delivery Organizations, including WellMed and Kelsey‑Seybold Clinics, where high‑quality, patient‑centered care is the priority. These organizations are focused on thoughtfully modernizing health care and making a meaningful difference in the lives of the people and communities they serve. I’m personally motivated by the impact this work creates, and it starts with building strong relationships with physicians who are passionate about caring for others and advancing the future of medicine.
