Kate Baily
Client Manager
Hi, I’m Kate! I was born and raised in Omaha, NE and never left, but why would I?!? I have been all over the spectrum for jobs in childcare, government and now putting my foot into medical staffing! I just got married in September and bought our first home in November and my husband and I are expecting baby Baily around December. 😊
I love working at CrossMed because it has challenged me to step out of my comfort zone and continues to challenge me in the healthiest way every day. Not to mention, the camaraderie is unmatched. For fun I like to continue to brush up on my golf game with my husband and friends, host or attend my monthly book club and hang out with my twin sister. 😊 I love being a client manager, and I think what I bring to this role and CrossMed is the desire to build the best and strongest relationships I can with my vendors and recruiters alike.

Jennifer Blair
Recruiter
Hi everyone, this is Jennifer! After teaching 6th grade math the last 9 years, I wanted to a change of pace while still utilizing my organizational skill set and desire to help other, and what better way to do that than helping nurses! Omaha is where I was born and raised, although I would love to eventually make my way to Florida to be with family. My husband and I got married in the Dominican Republic and we have a 2-year-old spunky daughter to go with our two dogs – Athena (a German Sheppard) and Atlas (a psycho lab – ha!).
I love to travel and my goal is to have my daughter visit all 50 states before she graduates high school. I also have this weird thing where the volume level on anything must be an even number, otherwise I get all out of sorts. I also have a “minor” obsession with the TV Show “Friends.” As your recruiter I will be organized, honest, helpful, understanding and compassionate! I look forward to helping you find your next assignment!

Berk Brown
Marketing Manager
Hello friends, this is Berk Brown. I feel very fortunate to be able to serve as the marketing manager for CrossMed because I get to share the stories of our amazing travelers, internal employees and the exceptional culture & high standards CrossMed has for how traveling health care professionals are to be treated and taken care of. My wife spent more than 25 years in bed-side care as a Respiratory Therapist, so the CrossMed philosophy really resonates with me because I understand the physical and emotional demands of health care workers and the fact that they deserve an accountable advocate to support them with humble relentlessness.
My wife, Chantel, and I have been married 29 years this summer and we have two adult daughters. Cali (25) is a special education teacher for Lincoln Public Schools here in Nebraska and Shaylie (21) is in her final year of the University of Nebraska Medical Center dental hygiene program.
In my spare time I love getting lost in a great book about philosophy or history, collecting vintage sports cards/memorabilia and turning down the thermostat when my wife isn’t looking.
Jacob Brown
Compliance Specialist
Hi there! My name is Jake Brown, and I am one of the credentialing specialists here at CrossMed! I am married to my amazing wife Cierra and father to our beautiful daughter, Kenna (5). I was born and raised in Council Bluffs, IA (Go Hawks!) and now currently live in Omaha, NE. During my free time I enjoy playing golf, watching sports, visiting craft breweries, and spending my time doing anything and everything with my girls.
Before entering the travel nurse staffing world, I spent 7 years as a bartender. I love getting to meet new people and find out who they are, so I knew that my experience as a bartender would directly correlate to communicating with our nurses. I have been in the industry now for 5 years, with 4 years of experience as a credentialing specialist and 1 year as a recruiter. There is nothing more satisfying than creating that connection with a traveler and being able to clear them to start their assignment at a facility that needs the help. I joined CrossMed for the amazing people, the opportunity to grow and the positive impact our company has in the world of healthcare.

Before joining CrossMed, I was a nurse for the last 5 years and a travel nurse for 2 of those years. During my time traveling, I was on assignment in Arizona, Colorado, Kansas City and Texas. Travel nursing has given me such a unique experience to learn and grow in my nursing career as well as seeing different parts of the country. Just as I was given this experience, I want to give you a chance to experience this as well!
As a former travel nurse, I know how important it is to have a recruiter that is reliable, has strong communication, and prompt action. I look forward to working with you and can’t wait to help you find the perfect assignment!

Alissa Gniadek, RN
Recruiter

Just as much as a nurses choose me, I choose them. This is a partnership and respect and honestly goes both ways :). I can guarantee you that no one will work harder for you than a fellow nurse. I understand the value of what you do and want nothing but the best for you. If you are ready to take the next step, I would be honored to help you on your journey.

Laikyn Graf
Recruiter
Hey, hey! My name is Laikyn and not only am I new to CrossMed, but I am also brand new to the industry and already loving every bit of it! I live in Lincoln, NE, with my husband Trey and our two dogs, Chevy and Willow. I graduated from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln and while I don’t follow most sports, I do love my Huskers! I am fueled by caffeine.. like actually.. I can’t function without it. I moved to small town Nebraska for a little bit and realized not having a Starbucks and Target within reasonable distance wasn’t for me. I love being outdoors when Nebraska weather allows, spending time with family and friends, and taking on new experiences. I don’t travel nearly as much as I would like to, so I look forward to living vicariously through our nurses!

I have a 16-year-old daughter named Keelianne who seems to have become a beast of an athlete. She competes in Softball, Track, Basketball and Cross Country. She has dreams of being a college athlete and already has a few knocking on her door. Those dreams are coming true so I will be quite busy for many years to come being her biggest fan! I also have an amazing Man in my life (Dan) that always says I am his queen. Finally, we have two crazy fur babies in our home as well. Total opposites of each other we have, Rizzo, a 4 year old Great Dane puppy and Dottie, a 7 year old Jack Russel/Terrier mix who runs the show. In our rare down time, we like to venture out to my family’s 1300-acre farm in Western Nebraska. They have 200+ cattle, a few horses, a dog, and always tons of farm cats/kittens! Taking the four wheelers and side-by-sides out through the hills is our favorite!
I can’t wait to meet all of you amazing nurses and hear about all of your travels!

Allison Horejsi

Hi friends, I’m Allison! I was an OR nurse for 10 years before taking a year off to hang out with my baby boy (now toddler!) I’m a Lincoln, NE native, but spent 7+ years in Colorado and consider that home. I am married to my sweet husband, Jeff, and we have one son, and one girl dog, “old lady” Sadie. We moved back to Omaha to be closer to family and we’re soaking up every minute we can with them! In my free time, I love the mountains, hiking, coffee FIRST thing in the morning, sampling craft beer, and baking.
I am SO excited to be joining the CrossMed team as a recruiter! Of my 10 years as a nurse, I spent 2 of them as a travel nurse. I tell people all the time, “travel nursing is the BEST thing that ever happened to me!” I have a passion for helping nurses discover their full potential and I hope to help them have the same positive experience I had as a traveler. I met my husband while on assignment in CO and decided to stay put, otherwise I’d probably still be a travel nurse myself! If you have questions or are ready to start your travel adventure, let’s chat! The opportunities are endless and I can’t wait to take this journey with you. Seriously … take me with you!

As a sales manager, it is my mission to make sure we show our gratitude to every nurse that has taken the leap to join our incredible team of recruiters to help and care for our family and friends in need.
When I am not working, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, traveling to new places, and making the most of every day.

My wife Katie and I took a short pitstop in Sioux Falls, South Dakota before finally settling down here in Omaha, Nebraska.

On Saturdays you can find me watching the Hawkeyes play and on Sunday you can find me watching the Packers. My wife and I also love to travel, whether it be a quick weekend trip, or across (and out of) the country — Our favorite place so far has been Ireland, and the trip on our wish list is Greece.
The culture at CrossMed is top notch and being able to help nurses find the next step in their journey is so exciting and rewarding. Nurses spend all of their time taking care of others and it means a lot to me to have the opportunity to take care of them. I look forward to connecting with you!

Natalie Ohl
Recruiter
Hey y’all, I’m Natalie! I am a newbie to the industry, and to CrossMed, but in my brief time here I am already seeing the culture is unmatched. I was born and raised on a farm in small-town Iowa and moved to Nebraska about 8-years ago. I catch a lot of flak for rooting for the Huskers, but even more for being from Iowa, I just can’t win! I am your typical annoying dog mom, obsessed with my 4-year boxer, Quinnie. I love true-crime podcasts, country concerts, and a hot summer day spent at the lake. I am blessed with a couple of cool sisters who keep me sane, and in return I let them think they are funnier than me. While I love the snow (yes, that was sarcastic), I dream of moving somewhere warm in the next 10-years. Where should I go? I want to help you find your next adventure and maybe you can help me find mine!

I love to get to know new people and help them to discover new adventures in the travel nursing industry. Another fun fact about me is… I am obsessed with all things MTV reality shows.
Lindsay Peterson
Recruiter
Hey – I’m Lindsay! I’m passionate about helping and teaching people. I spent 16 years as a 6th grade English teacher, and when I decided to work in recruiter, nursing was a great fit. Like the classroom, nurses are essential to our society and our future. Nurses need caring, compassionate, and resilient recruiters to fight for them and to be advocates for them in the nursing world. When deciding what company I wanted to join, it was an easy decision; female run company, fantastic culture, and if I am being super honest, like the coolest colored logo ever!!
I played college volleyball at North Alabama, where we won a Division II national championship and I love coaching high-level volleyball in the area. I met my husband Troy playing volleyball and we have been married nine years. Our son Graham is 6 and our daughter Logan (named after my favorite volleyball player) is 4 ½ going on 14! I’m a huge Harry Potter geek and love traveling and spending time with my husband and kids.
I am a competitor. I will work tirelessly to make something happen that I believe in. I am a perfectionist when it comes to my craft. If you want it bad enough, you can do it. The sky is never the limit. If I get the opportunity to be your recruiter, I will 100% be your biggest fan, keep in great contact with you and advocate for you!

I am now a proud Midland Alumni and Nebraska native. I am happily married with two littles at home under the age of 3 years old. I love getting to work with healthcare professionals every day and making dreams become a reality!

Matt Smutny
Client Manager
Hi there, I am Matt, a Client Manager here at CrossMed. I have been in the industry for almost 3 years now and love the opportunity to work with healthcare professionals every day as they pursue their professional and personal goals. As someone whose lived my whole life in the Midwest, I love vicariously living through my traveler’s experiences in different areas all across the country. During my free time, I enjoy playing golf, spending time with friends and family, and cheering on my favorite sports teams. I can’t thank healthcare professionals enough for what they do and I look forward to helping you find your next adventure!
Eric Snyder
Recruiter
Hi, everyone! I’m Eric Snyder, I’m from small town Iowa, raised in South Carolina and loving Omaha, Nebraska! I am lucky enough to call all three home because of great friends and family, but I found that being “Funcle Eric” to my nieces and nephew here gave my heart the most purpose. I have backgrounds in the finance and automotive industry, but nothing feels as rewarding as coming to work everyday with the inspiring folks at CrossMed Healthcare. I never knew people could have such a passion to do good in today’s world. I find I need less coffee every morning because of the energy surrounding me when I walk through the doors.
I find that nurses are some of the truest, and most unsung heroes in America. You guys do the important work that we don’t stop to think about when we have loved ones needing care. And it’s your passion and professionalism that allows us to not think about anything else. But it shouldn’t be a thankless profession, so from the bottom of my heart, “Thank you for what you do!” Watching the professionalism and care that went into my grandparents’ care and the tentativeness and kindheartedness that helped my best friend through several surgeries and treatments humbled me, because I found that I could only hope to be half of the person you guys can be every day. Every one of you deserve capes. The least I can do is try to help you find a rewarding travel position, so I love the privilege of helping nurses on a daily basis.
Melissa Soash
Client Manager
Hi there!! My name is Melissa Soash (Missy). I have been married to my best friend Dustin for 10+ years, and we have 3 beautiful children and 3 crazy boxer dogs. Spencer (25) Kadence (4) and Kaleb (forever 3 weeks), Mia, Max and Monte. I am originally from Elgin, South Carolina but have lived in Omaha, Nebraska for 15+ years. My hobbies are pretty much doing anything with my family, painting old furniture and I am always finding something to remodel in our house. We are huge into UFC and just this past year I have gotten into Football (don’t laugh)! When I’m not at work you can find me at home showing off my crazy good hide and seek skills and playing 10 rounds of duck, duck goose, and if I’m not there you can find me at Target with a Starbucks.
I love everything about the medical staffing industry because I get to help the true Super Hero’s (all our Nurses) explore the country while doing what they love. I travel through each one of you!
My ultimate goal and dream is to be able to open a No Kill Animal Shelter that takes in all types of animals.
I would like to take a second and say, Thank you all for everything that you do, you are all truly the real Super Hero’s!!!
Amanda Sohl
Recruiter
Hello, my name is Amanda Sohl. I am a recruiter here at CrossMed Health. I worked in the restaurant industry for 20 years and it’s always been in my nature to serve and help people. I have always been a good listener and understanding to other’s needs. I grew up on a small island in Micronesia and moved here to Nebraska for college, but I now call Omaha home. Big culture difference but I love learning other cultures, explains why I love to travel. I am a proud mother of my two children, my son Logan, and my daughter Olive who I spend a majority of my time with.
Nick Sorich
Recruiter
Hey I’m Nick! Born and raised in Omaha, NE. I’ve been in the industry for a year and a half and have enjoyed every second of it. I joined CrossMed in April because of the experience, culture, and can-do attitude the people here bring to work every day. I grew up playing football, baseball, wrestling and worked for my dad’s construction company pouring concrete. After high school I ended up getting a degree in Economics and Finance. Pouring concrete my whole life was great motivation to get school done.
Past work experiences are in finance, tech, and coaching. I just finished up my 6th season as the Head JV Boys Coach and 1st season as the Varsity Assistant Coach under my mom who is the Head Coach for the girl’s team. I was lucky enough to be recognized as the Assistant Coach of the Year across all sports for our school district. This was the inaugural season for High School Girls Wrestling in Nebraska, and coaching with my mom has been more fun than I could have ever imagined. These experiences made me realize I like technology, coaching, and planning. I bring these skills with me every day by giving my nurses all the tools we can to meet and exceed their travel goals. My goal as a recruiter is let you do what you do best [be a nurse] and let me worry about the little things for you.
Sarah Torres
Team Lead Recruiter
Sarah Torres here. I’m a Colorado born, Massachusetts raised, Nebraska transplant! I have been in Omaha for 20ish years raising my 4 kiddos, Xander, Zane, Israel & Adora. When I’m not busy momming, I am huge adventurer! I love hiking, biking, Crossfit, oly lifting, camping, white water rafting (basically anything outside). I myself love to travel and now that my kids are older I take off any chance I get. Some of my favorite places are Cape Cod, Florida and Colorado or wherever I can escape to by car spontaneously!
I am so excited to be a part of CrossMed!! It’s such an honor to be alongside the greatest unsung heroes of the medical community who always go above and beyond in all they do for those in need.
I love that I get to help you find your next adventure doing what you love while I get to do a job I love! Selfishly it gives me the chance to live vicariously through you when I can’t be out there traveling myself. So where are we going?!

Michelle Williams
Compliance Manager
Hello, I’m Michelle Williams. Married to my amazing hubby Demetrius and a busy sports mama of three children: Chauncey (21), Nevaeh (16) and Elijah (14). I was born and raised in Omaha, NE but we frequently visit just about every Midwest state (and beyond) every summer during our softball and baseball travel season. We are on the road most weekends from March thru July and busy with high school sports in the fall. I love watching my kids do what they love and am sad to say we have less than 4 years until our last one graduates.
As you can tell, we don’t have much free time for about 9 months of the year but in our off months you can find us making amateur family videos, cooking every new recipe we find on Tik Tok, shopping, family movie nights, crafting, hosting our friends and family, watching ESPN and just making memories. Family is everything to me!
I have been in the travel industry for almost 7 years as both a compliance specialist and recruiter. I love what I do and love to help others begin their travel journey. I joined CrossMed for the amazing people and culture! It is both exciting and refreshing to play a part in a growing company that holds true their core values. I absolutely love the empowerment of women, the family-first mantra, and the ability to be who you are in an environment that is fun, supportive and whom all share the same professional goals!
