My career and education includes a variety of leadership, health policy, management, program/project management, strategy, community health needs assessment/planning and evaluation experience at the local, state, and national levels. Most of my career has been in the not-for-profit sector, but I have consulting and other work experience in the for-profit sector.
My current collaborative research and practice interests include: Health policy and community benefit; leveraging existing policies to impact the determinants of health; research into practice; institutionalization and sustainability of best practices and programs; adoption, implementation, institutionalization, and maintenance of best practices; interaction of organizations in communities to improve health; influence and interaction of health policy and organizations; and the intersection and collaboration of public health and health care management.
I teach both graduate and undergraduate students in health policy and health care management.
