# Heidi Morin

> Heidi Morin is a nurse leader turned software founder who built Parity Healthcare Analytics after the staffing reports available to her failed to represent the workload she could see on hospital units. Her first home-built model found a 9.6-FTE staffing gap within six weeks, giving clinical and finance teams a shared way to discuss labor, workload and budgets. That operational argument became a MaineHealth innovation project, a published patent application and, in 2020, a company focused on real-time nurse workforce decision intelligence.
