I have spent my career at the intersection of operations and people, building teams, navigating rapid growth, leading through change, and watching firsthand what happens when leaders are supported and what happens when they are not.
I have managed national clinical operations, scaled teams of hundreds in under a year, opened new service lines, and worked through acquisitions, burnout, and everything in between. I know what your leaders are up against because I have been in those roles myself.
Leadership is not about a title. It is about confidence, clarity, and the ability to trust yourself when it matters most. I started True North because I believe the right support at the right moment changes everything, for a leader, for their team, and for the organization around them.
