As a purpose-driven and visionary leader, I am known for my commitment to business excellence. Over the years, I have enabled organizations to gain the competitive edge in the market via multi-faceted leadership focused on business excellence, progressive HR strategy, and the cultivation of equitable, inclusive cultures. I’ve built and scaled new programs, and transformed legacy programs that no longer deliver. I am not afraid to take on new challenges and have gained a reputation for my ability to get things done and turn underperforming programs and disengaged teams to become best-in-class. My strengths lie in empowering those I work with and influencing across all levels of an organization. I believe that each individual should be encouraged to stretch themselves. The best way to achieve this is to give team members the space they need to be creative and bring new ideas to the table, and then figure out a way to implement. Metrics-driven, I lead based on what the data is telling us: Where do we need to pinpoint our efforts to generate better results? How do we leverage data to inform our decision-making and to enforce performance accountability? The best moments over my career have been in empowering organizations and teams to be their best. Select highlights: ➥Built and scaled a nationally recognized, award-winning Ethics & Compliance program that enhanced engagement across a 5,500+-FTE organization and put Cambia Health Solutions on the map as 1 of only 4 honorees in the Health Insurance industry to receive the coveted World’s Most Ethical award by Ethisphere, a global leader in defining and advancing the standards of ethical business practices that fuel corporate character. ➥As a result of this work, to date, Cambia has received this award for 5 years in a row for this program. ➥Additionally, this program has been recognized as “best in class” by Blue Cross Blue Shield, receiving the Best in Blue award (recognized across all of the Blue Cross Blue Shield plans).
