>> I graduated from USC's Marshall School of Business in 2002.
I majored in Business Administration with a double emphasis
in Finance and Global Management.
Once I graduated I-- that's when I entered the healthcare industry,
and I went to work for CHOC as a financial analyst.
CHOC is Children's Hospital of Orange County.
I stayed with CHOC for about four and a half years.
Real quick after I became a Financial Analyst I was promoted to a Senior Financial Analyst,
and then I decided to make a lateral move and I took a position
with Memorial Care Health System.
And I was located at their Saddleback Medical Center location.
Shortly after I started, about a year and a half later, I was promoted to Manager
of Decision Support for Saddleback.
And about-- I was about manager for three and a half years.
Then our department was restructured and in that restructure I was promoted to Director
of Financial Planning, and I was moved to our corporate office.
So, originally my position at Saddleback I did all of my analysis, all of the budget work,
decision support work was specifically for Saddleback Campus.
And now with my role in corporate I was put in charge
of the budget process for the entire system.
