Education

Gillings School of Global Public Health at the University of North Carolina

Master of Science in Public Health Degree in Health Policy and Management

University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill

Bachelor of Science Degree in Mathematics

I was drawn to the healthcare field because at the core of the industry is the desire and potential to positively impact a person’s life. At ECG, we have the opportunity to help our clients transform the way that healthcare is delivered, improve the infrastructure that enables scientific discovery, and even determine the best pathway to train the healthcare providers of the future.

Andrea’s wealth of experience in medical education and research planning make her an ideal partner for university and community-based teaching hospitals, as well as historically nonteaching hospitals seeking to align their academic investments with organizational strategic goals. Her in-depth expertise in GME finance, Medicare reimbursement regulations, and ACGME program accreditation requirements enable her to provide support at all stages of GME enterprise development. Additionally, Andrea’s extensive knowledge of regulatory affairs, grants management, and research contract negotiation allow her to assist AMCs with tackling transformative initiatives across their medical education and research missions. Healthcare executives and academic leaders have come to rely on Andrea’s guidance and judgment when making decisions that have significant implications for their academic enterprises.

Since joining ECG’s Academic Healthcare Division in 2016, Andrea has assisted academic organizations in developing actionable solutions to their most challenging endeavors. She focuses on partnering with teaching hospitals and medical schools to improve the operational and financial performance of their academic enterprises. Her recent experiences include developing a system-wide strategy for GME expansion across a regional health system, as well as establishing a joint research collaborative and negotiating a master research affiliation agreement between a major state university medical school and a regional health system.
