Summary
20+ years of experience in senior leadership. Open to any new role, and I am happy to learn new things with new people and keep learning more myself. I was board certified in general surgery from 2003-2023. I did not renew this as I am no longer an operating surgeon. I am board eligible in primary care (PALTC or post acute long-term care). I will be board certified in approximately 19 months.
