Her leadership has helped strengthen teams, support patients and families, and continues to advance the future of healthcare delivery across the Highlands.

Since joining HHHS in January 2024, Tori has consistently demonstrated leadership grounded in our organizational values. With clinical roots in critical care and progressive leadership experience spanning both acute and long-term care, she has brought a thoughtful and collaborative approach to advancing quality care initiatives throughout the organization.
