"With a solid foundation, including an innovative set of solutions and strong client base of top-tier organizations, I couldn't be more excited to join the team and help drive the next stage of growth for the company."
Michelson's prior experience includes providing strategy and operations redesign consulting for many hospitals and health systems in the U.S. as well as serving in a number of roles at both Baxter International, a medical supply company, and AstraZeneca, a pharmaceutical company.
