As Program Director of CHARME at the Sustainable Purchasing Leadership Council, she leads a coalition of health systems, suppliers, and nonprofits working together to reduce emissions in the medical technology value chain.
Her background includes over a decade at the Institute for Healthcare Improvement, where she led large-scale collaboratives focused on improving care delivery. She has also worked at Mass General Brigham and The Advisory Board.
