I grew up in New Orleans around healthcare, hard work and people leadership. My mother’s role in orthopedic medical education gave me unusual early access to medicine—from health-career education at McMain Magnet to observing orthopedic surgery. I entered college pre-med, completed orthotics and prosthetics internships, and eventually chose exercise physiology as the place where science, performance and helping people converged.

Athletics taught me discipline. Building orthotic devices and later managing rehabilitation in a pain-management setting made science practical. Exercise physiology taught me how systems adapt. Teaching undergraduate students—and later certified fitness professionals and healthcare audiences nationally—taught me that expertise only matters if you can help someone else understand and use it.

That clinical literacy followed me into business. It has helped me work across the table from CMOs, clinical operations leaders, NPs and other healthcare stakeholders—connecting clinical credibility with customer strategy, commercialization and enterprise growth.

That thread followed me from human performance into corporate wellness, multi-site operations, entrepreneurship, healthcare, enterprise growth and transformation. The titles changed. The underlying question did not: How do we create an environment where people and systems perform better together?

My career has not been linear. Some of the most important chapters came from setbacks, reinvention and choosing to build new capability instead of defending an old identity.
