Bio
Throughout my career I have been at the forefront of initiatives that have supported significant growth, and have turned around floundering and problematic divisions to regain the respect of the people they serve. I have conceived new ideas to strengthen core services, managed specialized projects, and maintained the morale of “the troops” despite periods of instability and change.
