SPOTLIGHT FRIDAY | Meet our VP of Fixed Wing Operations, Jennie van Dongen, MBA, RN! ✈️💙
Behind every great team are leaders who bring experience, passion, and a genuine commitment to making a difference. Today, we're shining the spotlight on someone we're incredibly proud to have as part of the Atlas Air Ambulance family: Jennie van Dongen, our Vice President of Fixed Wing Operations!
With 20 years of experience in healthcare and air medical transportation, Jennie's career has spanned nearly every aspect of patient transport. From providing hands-on clinical care aboard helicopters, fixed-wing aircraft, and ground ambulances to leading fixed-wing operations at MedCenter Air, she's built her expertise from the ground up. Her experience extends well beyond patient care, encompassing international business development, operational leadership, healthcare partnerships, and revenue cycle management. Combined with her nursing background, MBA, and Master's in Healthcare Administration, Jennie brings a rare combination of clinical knowledge, business insight, and firsthand operational experience to Atlas Air Ambulance.
But what makes Jennie such an important part of Atlas goes beyond her credentials. It's her passion for bringing people together, building meaningful partnerships, and ensuring that patients around the world receive the care and coordination they deserve.
And when she's not helping keep our fixed-wing operations moving? You'll likely find her spending time with her dogs, traveling internationally, baking elaborate specialty cakes, or exploring a winery. 🍷🐾
🏍️ Our favorite fun fact? Jennie got her first motorcycle when she was FIVE YEARS OLD and raced dirt bikes all the way through college! Clearly, adventure has always been part of her story.
Jennie, we're incredibly grateful for the knowledge, leadership, and heart you bring to Atlas. We're lucky to have you on our team, and even luckier to call you one of our leaders!
Help us show Jennie some love in the comments! 💙
