This elite peer nominated award recognizes an exceptional CISO who has a proven track record of successful IT security leadership throughout their career, made significant contributions to the advancement of cyber security, and inspired others through their personal, professional, and civic contributions.
We can’t think of anyone more deserving of this award than Jill. As our first CISO, Jill and her team built the information security program from inception focused on overall governance, strategy and policy; this includes initiatives such as the Ambassador Program, leading our business continuity planning, and leveraging tools and technology to further protect our organization. She and her team lead the enterprise-wide effort to keep our information and systems secure in support of our overall business focus – to provide extraordinary care for our patients. Jill’s commitment to education and training has led to the spread of a culture of security across the organization. Her focus on risk management and risk reduction has facilitated the secure growth of Option Care Health. Jill is also the Executive Sponsor for the Option Care Health Women’s Resource Group, as well as a mentor in our company program.
Prior to moving to the private sector, Jill spent 20 years working in and with the national security and intelligence communities of the Federal Government. She was also a Foreign Service Officer with the US Agency for International Development, stationed in Bolivia and Russia and worked extensively throughout Eastern and Southern Africa. When she is not focused on keeping our organization and patients safe, Jill is on the Board of Directors of Adelante Healthcare, a large community healthcare center based in Phoenix.
Jill will receive her award at the Chicago CISO ORBIE Awards event Thursday, May 15. Please join us in congratulating her on this incredible achievement.
