System Director, Workforce Planning | Influential Leadership, Talent Optimization, Predictive Modeling CommonSpirit Health, 2019 – 2025 At CommonSpirit Health, I launched workforce planning initiatives across a healthcare system comprising over 150 hospitals and 150,000 employees. This role involves carefully forecasting talent needs, aligning operational and financial strategies, and ensuring continuous readiness during complex organizational transitions and crises.

This foundational shift elevated workforce planning from a tactical HR function into a strategic imperative at the executive table.
