Qlarant President Sandy Love dedicated 30 years to the organization.

As we come to the close of a remarkable career, the departure of Sandy Love from her role as Qlarant’s President of Integrity Solutions marks the end of an era characterized by innovation, integrity, and unwavering dedication to excellence. With three decades of service to the organization, Love’s journey has been defined by her transformative leadership, pioneering initiatives, and profound impact on the industry at large.

Sandy Love’s tenure at Qlarant began in 1993. Fueled by her visionary leadership and commitment to driving positive change, she impacted the organization immediately and over the years she assumed various roles within the organization, each marked by her strategic foresight and ability to navigate complex challenges with poise and determination.

In 2005, Love was appointed President, a position she held with distinction until her retirement. Under her guidance, Qlarant experienced unprecedented growth and expansion, solidifying its position as a leading provider of quality improvement, program integrity, and consulting services. She has exemplified unwavering dedication, leadership, and an unrelenting commitment to our shared vision and values. Sandy’s impact on our organization extends far beyond her impressive tenure; it is woven into the fabric of who we are as a company today.

Under her guidance, Qlarant has navigated through challenges and transformative opportunities to emerge as a trusted leader in our field. Love’s leadership helped change the trajectory of the entire Qlarant organization. Through her work and the great efforts of her teams, Qlarant secured not one, but two UPIC jurisdictions (tied for the most awarded to a single organization) and the I-MEDIC. Jurisdictions that Qlarant still holds.
