Today’s spotlight: Jennifer Carusetta

Title: Executive director, Health System Alliance of Arizona

Background: Carusetta has worked in public policy and legislative affairs in Arizona for nearly two decades. She joined the Health System Alliance of Arizona in 2015 as the organization’s first executive director.

Best decision: “Once I made the decision to go into health care policy I never looked back.”

Lesson learned: “One of the most important lessons I have learned over the years is that as a leader, you set the tone for your organization. So, if you are organized, positive and engaged, the people who follow you will mirror that same spirit in their interactions with you and one another.”
