EXPERIENCE
2021-2022
Business Development Director
arivis Imaging Solutions
Image analysis and 2D/3D/4D modeling of pre-clinical and industrial radiochemistry and fluorescent labeling from multiple imaging modalities, including Confocal, Spinning Disk, Light Sheet, Multi-photon, PET, CT, MRI, and multiplexed imaging studies. I leveraged machine learning and neural network training for deep learning image analysis for customer base in 3 countries leading to an increase in the business pipeline of over 1.3 million dollars in 6 months.
2019-2021
Olympus Life Science Solutions
Microscopy Support and Vendor Management
Spearheaded North American microscopy service operations and business strategies while managing 40 Service Vendor companies throughout the nation and assisting with the management of another 35 throughout the Western Hemisphere, during which I led multi-departmental collaborative project to develop SOPs for microscopy vendor management and conducted ongoing training to ensure compliance with ethics, environmental health and safety, financial, and general business policies, requirements, and objectives.
Also, I negotiated microscopy service contract sales with over 50 new clinical, pharmaceutical, life science, and industrial clients, increasing microscopy service revenue by over $800,000.
2012-2017
Microscopy Sales Rep
Olympus Life Science Solutions
Specializing in single-cell, tissue microenvironment, intact organ, and live animal imaging during product demonstrations at customer sites. Increased territory revenue by 50%, exceeding $1M in sales through troubleshooting and investigation of issues, identifying root cause errors, and implementing corrective actions as necessary to support the customer base.
