From Scranton, Pennsylvania, Sheridan Kaschak serves as the Executive Assistant to the President and CEO at The Wright Center. Sheridan’s role offers a unique vantage point to support leaders dedicated to mission-driven care, keeping Sheridan closely connected to the communities served. Regular engagement with patients, providers, and partners ensures that efforts remain aligned with the real challenges faced by underserved populations—fueling Sheridan’s daily commitment to equity, access, and compassionate service.

Currently, Sheridan is energized by supporting Dr. Thomas and the leadership team in advancing strategic partnerships that enhance community-based medical education and expand care access. Sheridan’s dedication to health equity and social justice is rooted in the conviction that true equity comes from intentionally designing systems that serve the most vulnerable, ensuring compassionate, high-quality care for all, regardless of background, income, or zip code.

To Sheridan, leadership is best captured by the wisdom: “To lead people, walk beside them… As for the best leaders, the people do not notice their existence. When the best leader’s work is done, the people say, ‘We did it ourselves.’”
