Delta Dental partners with Arkansas-based employers to provide dental and vision benefits for employees throughout the country. We also work with Medicaid, Medicare Advantage and individuals. Delta Dental is structured as a not-for-profit social welfare organization. I previously served as a COO and CIO in Virginia and Seattle. I earned an MBA and bachelor’s from University of Virginia.
