Commercial and Marketing Leader Launching Brands and Companies in the Healthcare Industry
About
Welcome to my personal website highlighting my professional career helping to bring healthcare products to market emphasizing achievements and contributions.
26 years and counting. From small start-ups with as few as four employees to a few dozen, to large multi-national companies with several thousand employees, each experience can be very different but should always be meaningful.
The most important decision was made at the beginning in a chance conversation… While in graduate school studying pharmacology and researching the effects of aging and trauma on the brain, I had the fortunate experience of having a Lilly researcher and the discoverer of Prozac as a professor. I asked him what career he would recommend pursuing, he said there is a need for people with science backgrounds on the commercial side of the pharmaceutical industry. From there I have had the chance to change how diseases are treated across the world and improve the lives of many.
12 branded product launches covering several disease and therapeutic areas, inpatient and outpatient, retail and specialty.
Early product development and brand commercialization work on nearly 50 products including pills, injectables, infusions, topicals, medical devices and smartphone apps covering common, rare, and ultra-rare conditions.
9 different branded therapies each earning a billion dollars or more in sales a year.
4 start-ups launching a company and a product at the same time.
Built 2 sales and marketing teams from the ground up.
More than a dozen peer-reviewed publications and presentations at international scientific congress meetings.
Countless presentations at industry events and to major healthcare institutions.
One of the best I have worked with.
