Health Catalyst is proud to announce that it has been named The National Association for Business Resources (NABR) Best and Brightest Companies to Work for in the Nation.
The Best and Brightest Companies to Work For® identifies and honors companies that deliver exceptional employment practices and demonstrate an impressive commitment to their employees.
One way Health Catalyst demonstrates its commitment to team members is by investing in their continuous learning and professional development. Through a $10,000 annual education allowance, Health Catalyst helps team members expand their skills, pursue new certifications, and meaningfully advance their careers.
We have interviewed five of our teammates who have utilized this benefit to advance their careers, whether through educational opportunities or professional development programs.
Learn more about those whose expertise and contributions have distinguished them as five of Health Catalyst’s best and brightest below.
1. “Starting my career in IT in 1999, a formal degree wasn’t heavily weighed at the time, so I never felt the need to complete a bachelor’s. However, through Health Catalyst’s education allowance, I was able to earn my degree at Champlain College and am now pursuing my long-time goal of an MBA at Texas Tech’s Rawls College of Business. This opportunity has been instrumental in my career growth and a key factor in my path to an SVP role.”
- Evangelina White, Professional Services, SVP, Professional Services Department at Health Catalyst
2. “The education allowance at Health Catalyst was instrumental in advancing my career by enabling me to earn my PMP, Scrum Master certification, and Six Sigma Black Belt certification. These credentials have strengthened my project management expertise, enhanced my ability to lead agile teams, and equipped me with data-driven problem-solving skills, all of which have been invaluable in driving successful outcomes in my projects at Health Catalyst.”
- Carey Nguyen, Project Manager, Professional Services Department at Health Catalyst
3. “Health Catalyst awarded me the Women in Engineering Scholarship. That scholarship paid for me to attend a bootcamp, after which I was hired as an intern, all helping me to make a career change into engineering. I continue to use the education allowance for smaller courses/subscriptions.”
- Michelle Gargalis, Data Engineer, Financial Decision Support Department at Health Catalyst
4. “Jonald Gonzalez actively pursues intensive cybersecurity certifications with the help of the education allowance, of which his increased knowledge directly protects Health Catalyst from invasive and technical attacks on our systems. Of those, he works to round out his skills by gathering skills on the blue side (defense) and the red side (attack) to better understand, prevent, and respond to cybersecurity threats.”
- Cindy Seipert, Infosec GRC Analyst, on behalf of Jonald Gonzalez, Sr. Security Analyst, InfoSec Department at Health Catalyst
5. “I am pursuing my MBA at Colorado State University while working full-time at Health Catalyst, utilizing the company's education allowance. With about a year and a half remaining in the program, this experience has been incredibly valuable, enhancing my skills in my current role and preparing me for future opportunities. Health Catalyst’s support for continuing education is truly remarkable and very much appreciated. I am grateful for this benefit and encourage fellow team members to take full advantage of it.”
- Zach Shoemaker, Sales Vice President, Growth Sales Department at Health Catalyst
From staying ahead of professional certifications to furthering their education with graduate-level degrees, these team members inspire us by investing the time to advance their careers. For their hard work and dedication to maximize their professional capabilities, we tip our hats to some of our Best and Brightest.
