In 2018, I transitioned from my career in Accounting to Healthcare Administration. During this time, I worked in Outpatient Registration while pursuing my Medical Billing & Coding Certificate from Purdue University Global. Currently, I hold the position  at the local of President for the AAPC Kalamazoo, MI Chapter, demonstrating my active involvement in the field.

I am dedicated to upholding accuracy, professionalism, and ethical standards in all aspects of my work. I have specialized in Mental Health and ABA billing, focusing on providing comprehensive support in these areas. To further enhance my skills, I obtained the Billing Specialist Coding Specialist (BSCS) credential from the American Medical Certification Association (AMCA) and achieved the Certified Professional Coder (CPC) certification through AAPC.

My journey reflects a strong commitment to continuous growth and delivering high-quality healthcare services. I am passionate about my profession and strive to contribute positively to the field of healthcare administration.

Originally, I am from Indiana and now living in Tennessee. I hold Associate Degrees in Education and Science from Ivy Tech Community College. I'm driven by ambitious goals and a passion for continuous learning and skill development. I will be continuing my education to be a certified Medical Biller this year.  As an Operations Manager, I thrive on meeting professional challenges and helping providers meet their goals. Personally, I enjoy horseback riding and look forward to returning to it in the future. 

Originally from metro Detroit, and I made the move to West Michigan almost two years ago.

In 2007, I obtained a Bachelor of Arts degree in Sport Management & Communication from the University of Michigan. Later, in 2015, I earned an Associate of Science degree in Occupational Therapy Assistant from Kapiolani Community College in Honolulu, Hawaii.

As a military spouse, I've worked as an occupational therapy assistant for 8 years. Recently, my interest in medical billing has grown. After welcoming my third child, I decided to pursue a home-based career in medical billing to be with our children while my husband embarks on his career as an airline pilot.    

My goal is to enhance my expertise in medical billing and coding and obtain a CPC certification.

On a lighter note, some fun facts about me include living in 5 states over the last 9 years and winning a state championship in Girls Ice Hockey during my time at Grosse Pointe South High School.

In 1998, I received my Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education, and spent the next 5 years teaching elementary school-anything from music, to 2nd, 3rd grade, even teaching 1st/2nd grade combined.  I realized after those years that it was really not for me, and took a job as an Administrative Assistant at Memorial Hospital of South Bend, where I spent the next 16 years.  Most of my 30 years of working have been spent in the medical field working as an Administrative Assistant in some capacity.

In 2020, I left the medical field for a short time, where I worked for JESSE as an Early Childhood Assistant.  In December of 2024, I completed the AAPC Medical Billing and Coding course and I anticipate taking the certification test this May.

I believe my heart and soul really belong in the medical field and I enjoy all aspects of it.  I am excited for this opportunity to learn more in the field of Behavioral Health and every day feels like a new challenge to me.

After more than 20 years of owning and operating a business alongside my husband, we made the decision to relocate from Indiana to Michigan in search of a slower-paced, more intentional way of life. I earned my Bachelor of Science degree from Indiana University in Bloomington, and over the years, developed a keen eye for detail and a deep appreciation for exceptional customer service. These strengths naturally led me to the field of Medical Billing, where I found both purpose and fulfillment. I chose to join Genesis Medical Billing LLC because of its strong commitment to integrity, accuracy, and client relationships
