Notable Achievements or Projects
One of my most rewarding projects at Nuvera was leading our first Patient Services AI and Digital Strategy engagement. We assessed our client’s current digital and AI capabilities and developed a strategic roadmap of emerging digital/AI solutions to strengthen their patient support model. My favorite part of the project was shadowing patient services teams—including case managers and FRMs—to understand their day-to-day interactions with patients and healthcare providers. Those insights helped us identify opportunities to automate routine administrative tasks, enabling teams to spend more time focused on delivering meaningful support and improving the patient and provider experience.
What are you passionate about at work?
I am a big fan of problem solving and innovating. Figuring out creative ways to help our clients move towards best practices in the patient support landscape. It is always exciting to know that our indirect customer, the patient, will have a better experience in their therapeutic journey towards better health
