Today, Kerr holds the title of Senior Executive Vice President of Regulatory Affairs at OneShare Health. His duties include helping navigate the regulatory industry as it affects OneShare Health and its Members. As a board member, Kerr assists OneShare Health in establishing and maintaining its goals as a health share ministry and ensures the company has adequate, well-managed resources at its disposal.
“Some of my talents are building organizations and serving people wherever I can help,” said Kerr. “As OneShare Health is a young organization, I see a lot of potential opportunity to help build and create a truly great organization. This company is poised to grow quickly, not just as a health sharing entity but one that helps people on many levels, in addition to sharing their health needs.”
