I ensure that all dollars are accounted for so we can take care of our members and ensure they have access to healthcare
I don't know if I would say there is a typical day for me, but at the end of the day what I spent a lot of time on is creating partnerships with providers, hospitals, nursing facilities, and other similar locations to really develop a system for providing the highest quality, cost efficient health care for our members. I assist in creating partnerships with other organizations. For example, we work with the Vegas Golden Knights on some food drive activities to gather food for those in need.
Here's the first step for high school students
Understanding what programs exist out there is very important. I highly encourage doing a residency in a graduate program, but even before that you should start trying to shadow to understand what that specific career path may look like and make decisions off of that. The earlier you start, the better you're off. Don't be scared to fail. Fail early and fail cheap. The second thing I'd say is focusing on your education and making sure you have the knowledge set to be successful in your career.
"I was working on a project with the chief nursing officer. She wasn't having a good day and I had a miscalculation for a project. When I went to own up to it, she began talking about finding a different opportunity that might work best for me."
My wife and I love to go hiking. We were up in Mount Charleston last weekend and we also have an almost 9 year old German Shepard that hikes with us. Our favorite trip together was when we flew to Iceland for 11 days & did a variety of activities.
