2018 :
US Navy
Head Of Information Technology Department
I was fortunate enough to exceed all medical program goals for FY16 through FY18. In FY17 I achieved an 82% selection rate in my submissions, allowing me the honor of commissioning 14 new Officers in Navy Medicine, and was able to fulfill a third of the entire district's goal. FY18 was even better for me; I achieved a 100% selection rate, attaining 13 Officers for Navy Recruiting District Jacksonville and almost tripling my goal. But more importantly, my medical recruiting team is on track to meet our FY18 goal ahead of schedule and is ahead of most of the 26 recruiting districts.

Director of Talent Acquisition, Navy Medicine Programs
My teams oversaw multiple IT projects from start to finish. For example, HAIMS, a cloud-based document solution with ready-access to patient medical information world-wide for DoD and VA beneficiaries; and RelayHealth, a web-based secure email solution between providers and patients. I was the lead for the hospital's Controlled Substances Inventory Board where I re-authored the Class I substances auditing program to close gaps in processing/tracking throughout the hospital and its 5 branch health clinics, and also included mandatory training for team members. I also lead a multi-department team in the implementation of ARMSPRO, a third party billing software solution that increased discoverable third party insurance of beneficiaries by 50%, I lead an effort to leverage Audiocare to created a partially automated reminder system to call patients for incomplete radiology and laboratory studies that was cited as a best practice by TJC. I also had the pleasure of leading our IT security team in a detailed review of our IT Contingency Plan and Continuity of Operations Plan where each passed the hospital's Cyber Security Inspection with a perfect score -- this was a first for Navy Hospital Jacksonville as well as Navy Medicine.
2012 : 2015
US Navy
Deputy Chief Information Officer
I was the sole Medical Administration Officer for all health care operations of 5,000 ship-board personnel and was the Division Officer of the 65-person Medical Department. I reduced the ship’s MEDEVAC process completion time by 50%, coordinating efforts among the Air Wing, Training Department, Air Transfer Office, beach detachments, and fleet liaisons. I was also proud of our medical team coordinating over 160 outpatient and MEDEVAC transfers to US and foreign medical facilities around the globe, and tracking each and every one until they came back to the ship or were attached to a hospital in the US.
Earned the highest ship-wide grade of 98.3% with zero administrative errors during the 2010 maintenance inspection.

About
I started my career in health care administration and eventually moved into health care IT, now reaching into cyber security. My years of IT and project management experience have an extensive foundation of hospital and health care operations, law, and economics. I am a uniquely well-rounded IT and project manager keeping one foot in IT land and one foot in business land, while somehow with a third foot in cyber security. The name of the game is IT *and* cyber, not IT *or* cyber.
