Beth is a true pleasure to work with. She has creative ways of meeting challenges and always gets things done when she commits to them. She is a great problem-solver and excels in relationship management. I will miss working with Beth on a regular basis!

I had the good fortune to have spent the last three years working with Beth at Medical Home Network. MHN is a fabulous firm that combines technology and processes in clever ways to help solve some thorny health-care problems. MHN is what is because of dedicated, intelligent, and creative people like Beth. In addition to her broad range of technical and managerial competency, Beth has a delightful and engaging personality that is a joy to be around.
