I started my career in the Surgeon Request Team, creating customized instruments to fit a surgeon’s specific need.  I worked for 14 years in R&D across Spine, Ortho, and Sports Medicine at J&J, learning the discipline and focus necessary to launch medical devices worldwide.  I pride myself on understanding complex problems, and leading teams towards elegant execution. I thrive in the outdoors, and do my best thinking while walking with my kiddos each morning.
