With 20+ years navigating the health ecosystem, I specialize in identifying and solving healthcare's most pressing challenges, spanning patient, caregiver, and provider experiences. My extensive background on both agency and client sides encompasses diverse sectors, including pharma/life science, health insurance, health systems, digital/non-traditional, and government/nonprofit, offering a comprehensive 360-degree industry perspective. I seamlessly integrate brand strategy, marketing, and experience strategy, ensuring a holistic and successful integration for impactful delivery and engagement.

 

With an MA in sociology and over seven years in mental health, I prioritize holistic well-being, championing improvements in patient-centricity, reducing clinician burnout, and promoting total wellness. My unique blend of MBA and startup founder experience ensures that these initiatives not only enhance experiences but also drive tangible business value. Adept at quick integration into client teams, I anticipate challenges and provide effective solutions, fostering cross-departmental collaboration with legal, regulatory, compliance, medical, sales, training, and more to ensure unified support of programs during development.

When not helping fix the healthcare industry, I can be found working on my side career as an author, in the kitchen whipping up delightful baked goods and custom-designed cakes, or in Paris soaking up the café culture and history.
