In each of my professional roles, I have been successful in producing positive results, and I have a consistent history of managing cohesive departmental teams to advance shared company goals. A small sampling of highlights from my resume includes the following accomplishments: • Spearheaded the rollout effort to transition a 712-bed hospital from paper record keeping to computerized patient care management, utilizing state-of-the-art electronic clinical applications. This was achieved at Northwell Health (my current employer). • Produced PMO best-practice guidelines for the company; mentored colleagues on project management tools and processes for Atlantic Health System. • While working for the Avon IM & T Consortium, implemented advanced industry-standard technologies to educate and empower customers with previously limited technical knowledge.
