Strategic Administrative Leader | Healthcare & Higher Ed Operations | Team Builder
I have over 20 years of experience supporting senior leaders and managing administrative operations in healthcare and higher education. I lead with clear communication, steady follow-through, and a practical focus on building strong teams and improving work output.
I lead with clarity, consistency, and respect. Whether supporting executives or mentoring administrative staff, I believe in setting expectations, listening closely, and never asking others to do something I would not do myself. Good administration is quiet but powerful—it is about making space for others to succeed.
