Joanne Sullivan Assistant Vice President of Community Engagement
Joanne was inspired by Tampa Bay as a region with rapid growth and a hub for innovation and created the Leadership & Innovation Forum of Tampa, (LIFT) to benefit USF Health. Joanne had the vision of LIFT as an enterprise for change in transforming health and the quality of life in our community.
