Summary
- I am thrilled to be part of Oak Street Health to deliver high quality, affordable and accessible primary care that is patient centered, team-based, and equitable. I invite you to contact me if you are interested in learning more about a different model of primary care that is value-based and aligned with the goals of prevention, wellness and excellent chronic disease management.
Prior to joining Oak Street Health, I was a clinician-educator and administrative leader within a safety net setting, an academic medical center, and a multi-hospital integrated health system.
I am skilled in navigating a highly complex system with excellent written and oral communication skills. I have a demonstrated track record of building trust, developing collaboration and leading change.
