What brought you to Sellers Dorsey?
I first became interested in Sellers Dorsey while I was in graduate school studying public policy and discovered an internship position. Sellers Dorsey fit my educational requirements, but I was most drawn to the company’s Medicaid engagements as it presented an opportunity to improve the health care experience for some of our country’s most vulnerable populations.
What’s your special area of expertise?
I work on our value-based care initiatives, focusing on quality performance measurement and improvement efforts.
Who are your typical clients?
I get to work with a range of clients across the nation. Most of them are states, hospitals, and universities.
What do you like about working at Sellers Dorsey?
I really enjoy the people I get to work with! I can’t wait to return to the office post COVID-19 and continue growing those relationships in person. I appreciate the opportunity to work with such experienced colleagues, including former Medicaid directors, industry organization leaders, and all around truly talented individuals. Many of my colleagues have different opinions or approaches because of their own experiences, which means there is always someone to learn from!
How has your work changed over time?
The momentum for value-based care shows little signs of stopping and as a result, our clients’ interest in implementing value-based care initiatives has grown.
What is one important thing you have learned during your time at Sellers Dorsey? Alternatively, is there something else you would like to share?
