Farnum Leadership

Amy Joslin

Amy Joslin

Interim SVP, Farnum

Amy Joslin is the Interim SVP, Farnum. She brings 28 years of leadership in Family Practice, Internal Medicine, Neurology, OB/GYN, and Women’s Health to the Easterseals team as well as being an Operations Excellence Green Belt. Her career path also afforded an opportunity for involvement in several Clinical Research Studies with coursework through the Collaborative Institutional Training Initiative in Biomedical and Human Subject Research.

Always on the lookout for new ways to solve old problems, she revels in challenging the status quo. Her experience as a Green Belt facilitated the creation of a Travel Clinic, a Maternal Mental Health Safety Bundle, and a Women’s Health Center.

Amy is drawn to opportunities where she can support the community and disadvantaged populations. She found Easterseals to be a natural fit for her skills and desire to be of service.

Outside of work, she enjoys traveling, volunteering, and spending time with her family and two dogs.
