Experience
I have been a NP for 17 years, with 11 years as a primary care provider. Over the past 5 years, I have practiced across telehealth, primary care, population health, palliative care settings, and serving primarily Medicare, ACA, and medically complex adult populations. From 2020 to 2023, I worked with a startup company called Prospero Health, which merged with Landmark Health and later Optum (UHC). In this role, I cared for patients with advanced, chronic and serious illnesses, focusing on symptom management, medication optimization, chronic disease education, advance care planning. I collaborated closely with interdisciplinary teams, including physicians, nurses, social workers, pharmacists, and consistently demonstrated high-quality, patient centered care, earning top performance evaluations in my market. Since 2023, I served as a nurse practitioner with Health Alliance in Risk Adjustment and Population health, delivering fully virtual care. I conducted comprehensive health risk assessments for Medicare and ACA members using Epic telehealth and Microsoft Teams, identified and closed care gaps, coordinated follow up care, educated patients on preventative service services and chronic disease management. My work primarily supports older adults, and individuals with multiple chronic conditions. I am a top earning provider across all teams, completing the highest visit volume while maintaining patient satisfaction scores of 95% or higher. Across these roles, I developed deep expertise in telemedicine, population health, and care optimization, with growing focus on preventative care, functional medicine principles, and women’s health, including peri- and menopause management.
