	Name: Linda Powell
	Position: Vice President
	Background: My career at ABC Medical began as a consultant when I met Rick Jacobs in February 1992. We joined forces and began a journey to establish a billing service in Arizona and I never left. I was able to bring with me a background in medical office management as well as medical software systems training and support. I also have had the opportunity to wear many hats in this business from the technical to the human resource, as well as the accounting.
Outside Interests: When I'm not in the office, my husband Rick and I enjoy spending time with our boys, Jordan and Logan. We seem to be constantly coordinating our busy schedules to keep up with them and enjoy all of their sporting activities. In my spare time I also enjoy cooking.
What I like about ABC: We have a wonderful staff, a diverse client base and a beautiful new office environment. We truly are a family around here and wouldn't have it any other way.

 

	Name: Gina Henderson
	Position: General Manager
	Background: My billing career started in 1985 with Rick Jacobs working for The Spring Group in Phoenix. I worked there in the billing department for six years. When Rick started his own company he asked me to join him and Linda Powell at ABC Medical. Even though it was a new company, and a big risk, I started to work for them in April of 1992 and that was the best decision I have ever made.
Outside Interests: When I am not in the office I am with my husband Scott, son Cody and daughter Samantha. We love to go camping, boating and ATV riding on the weekends and the week nights we are busy with the kids sporting events.
What I like about ABC: Great people make a great company.

 

	Name: Jennifer Torres
	Position: Director of Client Services
	Background: The beginning of the rest of my career began in June of 1993 when I joined the staff at ABC having previously worked in the employee leasing business. I began working in the claims department and then promoted to the Credentialing Supervisor. From there I moved into the client services area so I have worn many hats here at ABC. My experience and growth have allowed me to interact with many people inside and outside of the office which I enjoy immensely. There is a great deal to know and understand about the practice management business and I find it all fascinating.
Outside Interests: Outside of ABC, most of my spare time is spent raising my three beautiful daughters. I am blessed to be able to run back and forth from ball game to ball game and dance lessons to dance recitals with my girls. As a family, we love spending time barbequing, swimming or seeing an occasional movie.
What I like about ABC: The management team and employees all take pride in everything that we do here at ABC Medical and that makes working for this great company all worth while.
