What is/are your favorite project(s) that you’ve worked on?
Some of my favorite projects are the ones which challenge me to learn, grow and stretch. While implementation projects are fun, I tend to favor strategic projects with unknown solutions. Projects which require data analysis, healthy debate, and consensus building.

Just over 10 years
How has NESHS helped you?
NESHS challenges itself to stay current and has helped me to navigate some truly dynamic times in healthcare through its professional development offerings, webinar series, and networking opportunities.
What’s your favorite career advice that you’ve given, received or heard on the street?
Good question! I would say to follow your passion and your interests. Put in the effort and be willing to challenge yourself. Find a mentor (be a mentor). Believe that where you start doesn’t determine where you will end.
What’s on your bucket list?
Zipline through a rainforest (keeping in mind my fear of heights).
