Welcome to My Resume
PERSONAL STATEMENT
I am currently working as a Clinical Informatics Specialist at Ascension Saint Thomas in Nashville, TN where I've lead analytics and reporting surrounding the COVID-19 crisis while also creating and maintaining various performance dashboards for system leadership. I love the constant change in the health services industry and strive to create actionable analyses and visualizations that are meaningful to key decision-makers and spark discussion for process and performance improvement. I am passionate about healthcare quality, operations, and data analytics, but am open to opportunities where I can improve my skills and provide service to the healthcare industry with a data-driven approach.
ABOUT AMANDAÂ RICHEY
Born and raised in Kansas City, MO, I moved away to attend the University of Kentucky for both my undergraduate and graduate degrees. I was elected Vice President of Education in Alpha Omicron Pi, was a founding member and treasurer of the UK Club Softball team, and studied abroad independently in France, instilling in me the values of teamwork, leadership, and maintaining composure in stressful situations. I began college interested in health sciences, but found my niche in Accounting and Management. After combining my passion for healthcare with my interest and aptitude for numbers, I completed two summer internships in healthcare finance and accounting and decided to continue my education by earning a Master's in Health Administration. Now, I’m looking for new challenges and hope to venture even further down my chosen career path, continuing to learn as I go. Find out more about me by getting in touch.
