Michelle’s role as Practice Manager allows her to utilize over 30 years experience in healthcare and business. She was a trained Surgical Technician early on in her career, working as a private surgical assistant for 2 OB-GYN physicians in the Portland, Maine area. Her knowledge of women’s healthcare covers office & clinical procedures, as well as surgical anatomy and techniques. She developed and trained OB Nurses on correct techniques for emergency C-Sections in the Labor & Delivery suite at the hospital she was affiliated with in Maine. She spent time in northern Maine in the late 70’s running a surgical suite at a small community hospital.

Michelle returned to school in the early 80’s to pursue a college education and graduated cum laude with a Bachelors of Science degree in Accounting. She passed the CPA boards and worked at a large, international accounting firm, Altschuler, Melvoin & Glasser, LLC in downtown Chicago for 2 years. Needing a more family friendly environment, she took a position at a mid-sized accounting firm, Kessler, Orlean & Silver, in Niles, IL and broadened her knowledge with corporate formations, business valuations, estate and tax planning.

Michelle’s experience has made her uniquely qualified to step into her role at Center for Reproductive Health. She has a strong personal commitment to ensuring that patients who put their trust in CRH will always feel that we are their biggest advocate.

Michelle lives in the western suburbs with her husband, Scott, and her two teenage sons, Ian & Austin.
