About Me

I have over 30 years of healthcare experience in the areas of billing, coding, compliance, education and software development. As a former Administrator for both a large health system and billing company in the Detroit area, I currently work as the Executive Director of a large physician organization providing compliance and education services to over 500 physicians in the Detroit area. 

I hold a Bachelor of Science degree in Anatomy and Physiology from Michigan State University and a Masters of Public Health from the University of Michigan. I am an AAPC Fellow holding certifications of Certified Professional Coder (CPC), Certified Risk Adjustment Coder (CRC), CErtified Documentation Expert - Outpatient (CDEO), Certified Family Practice Coder (CFPC) , Certified Professional Medical Auditor (CPMA) and Certified Obstetrics and Gynecology Coder (COBGC) through the Academy of Professional Coders (AAPC).  I am also an AAPC Approved Instructor.  I was a founder of and former President of the Novi, Michigan chapter of the AAPC.  I am currently serving again as the President of the AAPC Novi, Michigan chapter for the 2022-2024 year, and I am the chairperson for the AAPC Documentation Advisory Committee. 

In addition to teaching my own private CPC course, I am an instructor for AAPC in the Virtual Instructor Lead Training (VILT) courses.
