Cecilia Kalivas

I’m a public health professional with a Master’s in Public Health and more than seven years of experience helping people and communities get the care and support they need. Over the years, I’ve built and managed programs in hospitals, clinics, and the community, everything from substance use navigation and care coordination to weight management and prevention efforts.

What I enjoy most is bringing people together, patients, families, doctors, nurses, social workers, and community partners, to make health care easier to navigate and more effective. I’ve led teams, trained staff, and worked side-by-side with providers to make sure programs aren’t just running, but truly making a difference.

I’m relocating to Las Vegas and excited to bring my skills and energy to a hospital or health organization that’s committed to improving lives. At the end of the day, I care deeply about helping people feel supported, respected, and connected to the care they deserve.
