    Healthcare Operations & Consulting Externship

    This externship explores how care coordination work in acute mental health settings can be designed, analyzed, and communicated as a customer-centric operational system. Externs study the case manager’s role at IMH to understand how workflows shape patient experience, surface hidden risks, and make invisible coordination work visible. Through structured analysis, process mapping, and dashboard prototyping, externs learn how operational clarity supports continuity of care, safety, and institutional decision-making.

About me

I am a Master's student in Public Health, gaining practical experience as I prepare for my first professional role in consulting and healthcare operations.

My experience has given me a firsthand understanding of how healthcare systems operate—from supporting patients and interdisciplinary teams in hospital settings to conducting research focused on health equity, underserved populations, and evidence-based interventions. Through these experiences, I’ve developed a strong interest in understanding the operational and systemic challenges that affect healthcare delivery and identifying practical opportunities for improvement.
