Nora Alejo

Nora Alejo brings more than a decade of experience in healthcare to her role building and structuring patient navigation and patient experience initiatives within startup companies. Her career path began in education, where she taught English with a focus on linguistics, followed by work as a linguist analyst with the DEA, where she contributed to intelligence and court documentation. She transitioned into healthcare through medical interpreting at a hospital, earning certification as a simultaneous and consecutive interpreter, which led to clinical rounding experience. Nora completed two years of PA school prerequisites and worked as a scribe before joining her current organization, where she leads clinical teams, manages patient navigators, develops workflows, KPIs, and supports divisions such as billing and credentialing. She holds a bachelor's degree and a master's degree and maintains membership in the American College of Healthcare Executives. Nora attributes her success to her work ethic, resilience, service orientation, and upbringing as a first-generation U.S.-born individual and the first in her family to graduate college. She values family first, followed by service, integrity, educational growth, mission alignment, impact, and legacy, and she is driven to help patients access care and improve wellness.
