I currently have the privilege of serving as OHSU’s Director of Specialty and Value-Based Care. In this capacity my role is to be a consistent advocate for value-based care health initiatives across all aspects of care delivery with emphasis in Specialty Care and Hospital Medicine, acting as a keen observer and evaluator of emerging value-based care and alternative payment model trends, assessing risk, and recommending strategic direction. 

During my 14 years of service to OHSU, I have developed a reputation as a selfless and inclusive healthcare leader, focused on solutions that benefit OHSU’s patient population.  I have formal training in strategy development, healthcare administration, change leadership models, and Lean process improvement methodologies.  I view myself as pragmatic and authentic reformer and understand the need to build consensus across various stakeholder groups to enact change in systems, processes, and individuals.
