Summary
- I am a board‑certified OB/GYN and minimally invasive gynecologic surgeon with more than two decades of experience leading clinical teams, optimizing care delivery, and improving patient outcomes. My career has progressed from high‑acuity obstetrics and complex gynecologic surgery to a broader leadership focus on clinical informatics, workflow redesign, and data‑driven quality improvement.
My clinical background — now centered exclusively on gynecology — includes advanced minimally invasive surgery, chronic pelvic pain evaluation, and evidence‑based diagnostic pathways. These experiences have shaped my leadership philosophy: technology should simplify clinical work, strengthen communication, and support the clinician‑patient relationship, not add friction to it.
I bring a steady, analytical leadership style grounded in real‑world frontline experience. Whether guiding multidisciplinary teams, navigating high‑stakes clinical decisions, or aligning stakeholders around operational goals, I focus on clarity, collaboration, and measurable outcomes.
As I advance into the next phase of my career, my priorities include:
- Clinical informatics leadership that bridges frontline care with organizational strategy
- EHR optimization to reduce cognitive load and improve clinician experience
- Data‑driven quality initiatives in women’s health and surgical care
- Human‑centered design for digital tools and decision support
- Operational alignment across clinical, administrative, and IT domains
I completed my Master of Health Informatics at the University of Pittsburgh, integrating formal training with two decades of clinical leadership. My goal is to contribute at the system level — improving care delivery, strengthening clinical operations, and ensuring that digital tools enhance the practice of medicine.
