Lee, of Edinburg, has worked at Memorial Health since 2016.

Lee’s work responsibilities involve tracking hundreds of patients as they prepare for bariatric surgeries. She interacts frequently with insurance agencies on behalf of the patients at Memorial Wellness Center, helping to process approvals and appeals.

Lee’s knowledge of her job and her consistent approach to her work “elevates the entire program” at the Memorial Wellness Center, said Lee’s co-worker, who nominated Lee for recognition.

Outside of work, Lee enjoys camping, riding horses and spending time with family, which includes her husband.
