I am a dedicated management consultant with a focus on serving healthcare and other nonprofit service organizations in the San Francisco Bay Area and its surrounding regions. I am also a former health care executive with many years of experience as an operations lead, change agent, mentor, and capacity builder in health care.
From 2012 to 2022, I was the Chief Operating Officer at Mission Neighborhood Health Center. Prior to this, I gained valuable experience working at Freed Associates (FA), a prominent healthcare management consulting firm located in the Bay Area.
I hold an MBA from the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University, as well as a Masters in Public Affairs and Latin American Studies from the University of Texas at Austin. My undergraduate degree was in History from Cornell University.
I have capacity to bring in other consultants and technical resources, as needed.
