EJ Wagner, Cross Functional Specialist

What does EJ do for FPIN?

As a Cross Functional Specialist, I do a little bit of everything here at FPIN. I oversee company projects, assist others with their own, schedule meetings and handle office communications, manage IT, provide copy editing support, coordinate event preparation, and generally step in wherever help is needed.

I enjoy being part of a team that cares about each other and works together toward a meaningful mission. I especially take pride in contributing to FPIN’s success through versatile support and problem-solving.

Background

I graduated from the University of Missouri with a Bachelor's Degree in Sociology and Psychology. My career experience includes working for large companies in Columbia, such as serving as a Loan Closer at Veterans United and as an Insurance Authorizations Specialist at Boone Hospital. These roles strengthened my skills in administrative coordination, compliance, and interdepartmental communication, all of which I now bring to FPIN.

Hobbies

I enjoy walking my dog Zuko, taking impromptu trips with my partner Michele, reading a ton of books, and watching game shows. These moments of fun and relaxation help me recharge and stay focused on delivering high-quality work.

Unique Skills

I am a loyal and dedicated team member with a strong ability to focus on long tasks without distraction. I also have a love for building and landscaping, which allows me to work creatively and methodically outside of the office.

Fun Facts

I’ve won more than a few Super Smash Brothers tournaments during high school, college, and even one or two more recently. 

What do you love most about FPIN?

I love being part of a great team that truly cares about helping others through evidence-based practice. The idea of improving patient outcomes by teaching organizations best practices from the top down is something I genuinely believe in and am proud to support.

Favorite Netflix series or movie and why?

My favorite Netflix series is New Girl. I love the character dynamics and think it’s incredibly funny every time Michele and I binge watch through it. I especially love the blend of humor, heart, and hilarious characters.
