Meet the Global Team

Vice President of Operations, General Manager

After graduating from the University of Colorado at Boulder with a degree in Economics, Joe pursued more education receiving two master’s degrees in Operations Management and Finance, respectively, from Regis University. Although he’s worked in several fields (finance, technology, and healthcare), he knew Colorado was always the place to be professionally and personally, and joined the Global team as Vice President of Operations and General Manager.

When he isn’t preaching about quality and performance improvement initiatives to reinvent healthcare and education, Joe enjoys karaokeing 80s and 90s pop and rap music, and anything that gets him outside with his family and dog, Mikey.

Director, Education

Andrea has been in the medical education industry since 2011. During her time with Global, she’s focused on program management and operations, with an emphasis on customer service.

She received her degree in business from the University of Denver, and when she isn’t managing programs, mentoring employees, or completing outcomes and reconciliations, she likes to spend her time painting, crocheting, or at concerts – and documenting everything on social media along the way.

Program Manager

Liddy has lived in Colorado her whole life and self-proclaims herself to be “Global’s resident crazy animal lady.” She completed her degree in finance and much of her experience is in compliance, auditing, and operations management in a wide variety of fields.

In her downtime, she enjoys hiking with her husband and two dogs (Nibbles and Indiana Bones), fostering homeless animals, and travel.

Manager, Education Strategy

Julia received an English degree from St. Lawrence University in upstate New York before moving to Colorado in 2015. In addition, she has a hybrid graduate degree through the Harvard Extension School. She helps out everyone at Global with a variety of activities, assignments, and tasks, and also works as a part-time editor.

When she's not obsessively correcting everyone's grammar, Julia enjoys exploring the outdoors with her dog, Beowulf - a 70-pound malamute / husky mix that considers the Global office his second home. 

Program Manager

Ashley is a rare Colorado native and has lived here most of her life. After graduating with a BS in Business from the University of Colorado, she ventured overseas for several years to live and work as an ESL Instructor and Program Coordinator in both South Korea and Chile. After returning to the U.S., she worked for several years in the fundraising industry as a Logistics Manager while also completing her MS in Organizational Leadership and Project Management. Ashley has a passion for project efficiency, organization, and streamlining processes to help our partners.

When not in the office, Ashley enjoys spending time with her dog, reading, crocheting (or any type of crafting), trying new cuisines, and traveling - her lifetime goal is to visit 100 countries.

Senior Manager, CME Development

Carlos was born in Angola and raised in Lisbon, Portugal. He moved to the U.S. at age 19 with a scholarship to Juilliard and upon graduation, followed up with his master’s degree from the University of Lisbon. He has worked in the continuing medical industry for over 12 years and is the Senior CME Manager of Development at Global.

Prior to his career in the medical education industry, Carlos was a professional ballet dancer for over 30-years and received multiple awards, including Portugal National Dance Champion. When he isn’t expanding Global’s reach overseas and planning conferences, Carlos enjoys spending time with his 9-year-old son and 130-pound dog, Zeus. He is fluent in six languages (Portuguese, Spanish, French, Italian, Japanese and English), and always looking to brush up on his language skills over fine coffee.
