Availability & Capacity

I would like to volunteer for a one time special project., I would be willing to commit to serving on a POA committee.

Description of Experience

I was a health care professional for some 40+ years. I served as a hospital CEO and spent the rest of my career as a multi facility manager for non-profit hospital as well as a turn around consultant working with financially struggling hospitals ranging in size from 500+ beds to 100 beds many of which were large public hospitals. My expertise in these roles included financial management , right sizing organizations, hiring “C” suite executives, construction management, long range and strategic planning, and governing board retreats. Since moving to Big Canoe I have served on the HOA Board, special advisor to the POA Board, audit committee, finance committee, Troon task force, 2 GM search committees including the last one, work group for the CCF and am a current member of the LRPC and chair of the Program and Events Committee. I also serve on the boards of Smoke Signals and the Wellness Collaborative


Past Projects

I have served on the board of the Wellness Collaborative since inception and was one of two HOA Board members who were the driving forces behind the Wellness Collaborative. There was much resistance initially from other non-profit organizations within the community as they felt that our fund raising efforts would hamper their efforts. As a result of my past experience in working with governing boards and community leaders who were resistant to change and to doing what needed to be done, we were able to work through the issues with the other organizations. Today the Wellness Collaborative is a highly successful organization working to serve the health care needs to Big Canoe. We continue to expand our services to meet changing needs both in Big Canoe and surrounding areas
