I am devout to my profession. Over the last 30 years, I have been actively seeking new and initiative ways to create environments for challenged individuals to remain independent as possible in the community. As a nursing home administrator, I must be able to recognize and adapt to changing trends. Managed care is the future of health care; it is critical to partner with community resources such as assisted living, adult day care and families in the community. For fun I like to travel. In my travels, I research how other states are adapting.

Licensed LTC Nurse Aid
Communication
I get along well with others and am determined to find the good in everyone, even those with difficult personalities. One of my favorite aspects of my position is the opportunity to work and collaborate with brilliant individuals and leave a positive impact on everyone who comes in contact with the organization.
Patience
I am very easy-going in regard to my surroundings. I like to wait situations out while making small decisions along the way to create a positive outcome in any given situation. Never in a rush, always assessing to ensure out comes of objectives. Success comes in time.
Determination
I am strategically competitive and fall into leadership roles quite easily. As a leader, I model passion and determination for my team to pursue our goals no matter what obstacles arise.
Brought Assisted Living Home to Licensure Standards
I brought a small type A, twelve bed assisted living home up to licensure standards in the 1990's on the cusp of change in health care standards. The home had operated for two decades, unlicensed under the auspices of the Department of Veterans Affairs.
