As Vice President of International Sales at Ziemer Ophthalmic Systems, I was honored to lead the global sales team to achieve its highest sales in history. This success was achieved through a strategic focus on high-potential international markets. Before Ziemer, I served as CEO & President of Haag-Streit USA and Reliance Medical Products, where I was responsible for the overall financial performance. In this role, I played a pivotal role in expanding U.S. operations and significantly enhancing performance, resulting in substantial growth in profitability.

My academic journey includes a Doctor of Business Administration (DBA), a Master of Business Administration (MBA) in Marketing & Sales, and a Bachelor of Science (BSc) in Microelectronics/Semiconductors. I also completed executive programs at the Kellogg School of Management, earning an Executive Scholar Certificate in Marketing & Sales, Finance, and General Management, and joined the Kellogg Executive Education Alumni (Northwestern University).
