As a strategic sales leader, I specialize in driving revenue and profit growth through thoughtful strategy, process optimization, and execution. I’m passionate about building strong client relationships and take pride in being a trusted partner—one who listens first, understands deeply, and delivers creative, tailored solutions.Currently, I serve as a Commercial Sales Account Executive at Sharp Packaging Solutions, a leading provider of pharmaceutical contract packaging services including design, serialization, and packaging for blisters, bottles, injectables, and specialty formats.My career spans over two decades in the pharmaceutical and analytical services industries. Prior to Sharp, I was the Business Development Manager at Next Breath, an Aptar Pharma company, where I focused on cGMP analytical services for inhalation, nasal, and injectable drug products. I also played a key role in the early growth of Gateway Analytical LLC as a Senior Account Manager, and earlier, expanded service lines at its parent company, ChemImage Corporation, across pharmaceutical imaging, forensics, material science, and environmental testing.Beyond my professional roles, I co-founded TechPOWR, a women’s networking group that grew to over 100 members in Pittsburgh and later became part of the Executive Women’s Council of Pittsburgh.
