Melissa Soliz
Partner
Background: Soliz is a leader in health data privacy and interoperability, working with organizations to implement platforms and exchange networks to connect individuals with data they need while supporting compliance with complex legal requirements. She regularly speaks on health data issues and is active in state and federal policymaking.
Key to success: “My success is fueled by (1) a curious mindset that has driven my professional exploration into emergent technologies; (2) adept communication and listening skills that foster understanding; and (3) the guiding light of a supportive mentor. Together, this trio of keys has propelled me toward professional achievement, growth and fulfillment.”
Source of pride: “My greatest accomplishments lie in helping clients launch care coordination and consent management platforms for individuals struggling with substance use disorders while protecting their privacy. By bridging gaps in care and support services, these platforms empower communities to provide holistic care, fostering resilience and recovery among the most vulnerable individuals.”
Surprising fact: “A little-known fact about me is that, despite being a speech and debate and orchestra enthusiast in high school, friends nominated me as an alternative prom queen candidate. Surprisingly, I won, breaking the stereotype and initiating a tradition of wider community involvement in prom royalty selection at my alma mater.”
