I went into the pharmaceutical industry in the 1970's and worked my way up to President/CEO. 

I received a Bachelor's Degree in Medical Technology.

The biggest challenge I've overcome is balancing science with the regulatory aspects of the industry.  I also follow this motto "never forget the patient is waiting". 

My greatest strength is attention to detail and organizational skills. 

My greatest accomplishment thus far is being involved with 7 drugs that were published in a national publication. 

I've been inspired by providing a better way for more efficient processes. 

I want to be most remembered for providing the best quality possible. 

I donate to the US Olympic Committee, Pancreatic Cancer Network, Habitat for Humanity, Make a Wish Foundation, American Cancer Society.

In my spare time I enjoy offshore angler fishing.
