STUDENT AND ALUMNI SPOTLIGHTS
Sara Bravo, M.S. '19, graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire in 2008 with a B.A.
in Mass Communications with an emphasis in public relations. For the past five years
she has worked at the Johns Hopkins Pain Treatment Center in various roles. She started
off at as an entry-level patient services coordinator, which afforded her the chance
to learn about healthcare in an outpatient setting from the ground up. She was eventually
promoted to supervisor, which helped her realize what career path she wanted to take,
so she decided to enroll in UBalt’s Health Systems Management (now Health Administration)
master’s program. Through her classes, she was able to hear about what other managers
in the program experienced and the lessons they learned. Upon completing the master's
program, Sara was promoted to manager of the pain treatment clinic at JHH. This past
May, she was again promoted to operations manager of the Emergency Department at Johns
Hopkins Hospital.
"I wanted to take this opportunity working in emergency medicine because I like the
fast paced environment. In the emergency department, we unfortunately meet patients
on some of their worst days. Although I cannot help clinically, I take great pride
in working behind the scenes, making sure our clinical and administrative staff can
deliver the fastest care at the highest quality."
Byrone Brown, M.S. ’15, J.D. ’21, has been selected for the 2022 Noblis Experience Corporate Award.

In addition to the Corporate Award, Brown has also been recognized for his leadership at Noblis with the Board of Trustees Award for Excellence and the Frontline Leadership Impact Award.

Tiffany Cover, M.S. ’18, began her academic career at the University of Florida and earned her B.S. in Health Science in 2012. She also obtained her master’s in occupational therapy from the University of Florida in 2013. She is a board certified and licensed occupational therapist who has been practicing for the past five years in the acute care hospital setting. Tiffany decided to return to school during her clinical career and completed her Master of Science in Health Systems Management (now Health Administration) at the University of Baltimore.
She currently works at the Baltimore Veterans Affairs Medical Center as an Associate Group Practice Manager. In this new career path, the overarching goal is to promote access to care for our nation’s veterans using face-to-face discussions with healthcare providers and administrative staff, data analytics, administrative policies, and legislature/health policy to name a few areas. Through team collaboration, ensuring access to care strives towards the Veterans Health Administration’s top priority to provide quality care for our Veterans.
Ashley Cunningham, a current Health Administration student, has been selected to serve as the student member on the Maryland Association of Health Care Executives’ (MAHCE) Board of Directors. As a student representative, Ashley will participate in board meetings and work closely with the board’s faculty liaison—our very own Alan Weisman—to develop programs for students in the Maryland chapter. In collaboration with Prof. Weisman, Ashley will conduct outreach to help grow the association’s membership and increase student awareness and participation in MAHCE networking/educational events, as well as manage the events section of the MAHCE website. Ashley will also work with the Program Committee to plan future MAHCE events.
Parisa Damadi, M.S. '21, who was a student in UBalt's M.S. in Health Administration program at The Universities at Shady Grove (USG), was the winner of the 2020-2021 Graduate Student Academic and Community Excellence Award. These awards are presented to one student from each of the graduate/professional programs at USG, and celebrate students who have made outstanding contributions to their community in the areas of scholarship, service, leadership and involvement.
"Parisa has exhibited qualities that will make her successful in achieving her career goals as evidenced by her coursework and her GPA. Her interest in serving the elderly was piqued when she volunteered at the Shady Grove Medical Center as a Patient Care Representative. In that volunteer role, she was able to gain an understanding of the need for additional support to this group. She recognized that many of those she served did not have a clear understanding of the process of navigating through our complex health care system, which caused them to forgo medical care at times. Recognizing the dire need for support, she has found her niche." - Tina DiFranco, UBalt School of Health and Human Services executive director
Parisa intends to apply the knowledge gained in the Health Administration program towards achieving a management-level position that will provide support to the elderly population. Her overarching goal is to actively contribute her knowledge towards improving access to quality healthcare for the elderly.
