MIDTOWN COMMUNITY HEALTH CENTER competitors

In 2009, I was asked to fill the vacant Chief Financial Officer position by the then Chief Executive Officer at Columbia Wellness. My ability to translate numbers into operational strengths and weaknesses led to my promotion to Chief Operations Officer about two years later. Finally, in 2014 the Chief Executive Officer departed and I was named the Chief Executive Officer. Throughout my almost eleven-year career at Columbia Wellness I have remained passionate about providing excellent service to our patients and a first class working environment to our valued employees and partners. I am deeply involved in making Columbia Wellness a great place to work and grow by continuously listening to staff members and creating new ways to fulfill each employee's unique wants and needs. I enjoy feeling connected to something larger than myself! I proud to be part of an organization that makes a difference in the lives of the people we serve and the community that we live in.
