About David P. Tusa
As a Chief Executive Officer for both privately-held and publicly-traded companies, I have consistently jumpstarted profitable revenue growth and long-term investor returns.During my 19+ years as President, CEO, CFO, and Board Member at Sharps Compliance (NASDAQ: SMED), I transformed the company from unprofitability, growing the company to be a Top 10 publicly-traded company in Houston and the #2 US medical waste management service provider in the country. I’m proud to have built a world-class organization, expanding our team from 12 to 350+ team members and consistently developing team members into leadership roles.Under my leadership, my organizations have consistently elevated shareholder value, growing market cap from $2M to $325M and driving productivity through critical infrastructure improvements including CRM, finance, and accounting systems. I also regularly cultivated trust with the Board of Directors, investors and employees as CEO and as a Board Member for public and private companies.In my most recent role as President & CEO at MD Home Health, I successfully launched a variety of new and high-margin services including hospice, transitional care, house calls, physician-led in-clinic practice, and remote patient monitoring (RPM). Throughout my tenure at Sharps Compliance, I also led our product portfolio transformation from a single legacy product offering to 12 national services, capturing new markets including a $40M federal government contract.My experience includes leadership roles with public and privately-held companies across medical, pharmaceutical, and hazardous waste management, healthcare, B2B software services, business services, industrial services, engineering/construction, and consulting industries. My early career highlights include:• CFO & Executive VP for $200M Billing Concepts: Concurrently served as CFO for 2 publicly-traded firms (Billing Concepts and Sharps Compliance), transforming from a telecommunications billing company to a software-driven bill presentation/payment company (Princeton eCom) and partnering with leading Private Equity firms (Lazard Partners and Mellon Ventures).• CFO & Sr Vice President for $230M Serv-Tech Inc: Delivered 325% shareholder value growth, positioning Serv-Tech for sale, seamlessly consolidating 20 subsidiary companies, closing $83M global construction contract, lowering SG & A from 19% of revenue to 14%, and ultimately appointed by Board of Directors to co-lead the company.• Sr Manager (Audit) for KPMG: Served as Subject Matter Expert for clients across a wide range of industries.
