As the Director of Operations I assisted in the continued development of OptOR by working directly with the OptOR Systems Development Team while also overseeing both marketing/sales and product implementation.
In addition to doing consulting for new and existing clients I also explored dynamic partnership possibilities to facilitate company growth.
Began work at OptOR Systems in December of 2005 and prior to joining OptOR I worked for the ASC management and development firm Medbridge Development. From my time at Medbridge I was able to bring extensive ASC operations experience to my position at OptOR. -

August 2005 — November 2005 (4 months)
Medbridge is an ambulatory surgery center development and management firm. With experience in taking multiple projects through due diligence to completed construction and eventual profitability, Medbridge has successfully distinguished itself in a very competitive market niche.
With experience across multiple areas of operation while at Medbridge I was able to obtain a valuable knowledge base of ASC business operations. This, combined with extensive time spent working with the medical staff in one of our facilities gave me a thorough knowledge of what is required in order to run a profitable ASC.
