SUMMARY

I have a 6-year progressive operations, organizational strategy and management experience as an Army Officer, 2 years of experience as a business management consultant, and 2-year healthcare experience as an Army surgical scrub tech in U.S Army Medical Corp. I transitioned out of the military to pursue my passion for business and entrepreneurship. I rediscovered my love for healthcare during my healthcare management classes at Washington University’s in Saint Louis’s Olin Business school. I am looking for an opportunity to work for a company I can add value to, learn and grow.
