U-M Role

I have been with the University of Michigan for almost 30 years, researching and designing sustainable models for financing behavioral health services. I have served as a professor and department chair; chair of the Provost’s committees to redesign sustainable health benefits for the University; and director of the Behavioral Health Workforce Research Center, the Michigan Institute for Clinical and Health Research, and the Institute for Healthcare Policy and Innovation. I have taught graduate courses in insurance, payment systems, and finance, and conducted international research as a Fulbright research scholar in Croatia. Most recently, I served on the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine’s Blueprint for preventing behavioral health disorders.

What Excites You About the Trip?

This trip will be unforgettable: crisp, cold air; peak winter snows absorbing the sound; twilight skies; and all the Arctic activities. Of course, the increased chance of seeing the northern lights above a snowy landscape, dancing across the atmosphere, will be truly magical!
