SUMMARY:

• I earned a second Master of Science, Biomedical Informatics, from the University of Medicine & Dentistry of New Jersey (UMDNJ); my GPA was 3.9. I was especially adept at Health Care Data Management, Health Care Information Systems, SAS Applications in Biomedical and Clinical Research. However, I most enjoyed Health Care Database Management Systems and Management & Leadership in Health Care as well as Health Information Processing using XML/HTML.
• I learned to employ XML and associated technologies in data management in the biopharmaceutical sector(s). I was exposed to advanced database theories applicable in health management systems. I was educated about the structure and management of medical information as it is organized into structured knowledge bases. I learned about relational database design including database structure, programming languages and DBMS using SQL as well as Access. As well, I was exposed to the application of those principles of management and leadership specific to the health care industry.
• As an Implementation Manager, I would data mine and map data from the legacy system and test the new platform to ensure the data migration went smoothly. I’ve done this in my previous career with each merger/acquisition. My forte’ is liaising with vendors and programmers to transition data from older ecosystems to newer, more robust ecosystems. I implement new software platforms for enterprises of 100k+ employees by accurately mapping data from outdated mainframe systems using COBOL, Sybase to web - based systems using a host of programs, languages, queries, forms, reports (using Access &/or SQL), etc.
• Among other things, I was, ultimately, able to (do the following at the end of my tenure as a student):
• understand XML and its relationship with HTML and XHTML;
• edit and validate an XML file describing a certain data structure;
• process a given XML file using JavaScript;
• transform XML documents through the of XSL and CSS;
• write code in SQL;
• perform statistical analysis in SAS.
• I am a single woman with no dependents (and a willingness to relocate, if necessary) who recently renewed her USA passport. I am a native US citizen who is willing to/can travel without hesitation. Lastly, I am familiar and comfortable with the implementation of software. To this end, your enterprise seems to be an “employer of choice” for me because my mantra is “Be Always Learning”.
• My interest in your enterprise is profound. I am a woman making choices about her career and personal future. For me, this role is merely a change of industry as it relates to my professional skills. I believe in always learning and so your job description of Implementation Manager seems to be a well-made match.
