Experience:

I joined MR Woodbury in 1991. At that time there was a grass roots unit supporting the pharmaceutical industry. I participated in a key role to help develop a visible and successful business unit that today offers business solutions to a wide range of candidates and companies. I have achieved the level of Certified Senior Account Manager (CSAM). This is the highest level of recognition within our organization. It is awarded to a limited number of individuals who complete extensive training and pass a comprehensive examination. My previous background includes an M.S. in Labor and Industrial Relations and a successful career Human Resources management ranging in areas of responsibilities in Employee Relations, Compensation, Organizational Development, and Staffing.

Philosophy:

Integrity. Respect. These are words that have special meaning to me. My knowledge of recruiting, qualifying talent, and negotiating win win solutions for my candidates and clients has established me as a valued partner in business. My integrity allows me to clearly communicate the desired objectives of the employment process. I don't have hidden agendas. I recognize the potential impact of my influence on the job seeker. It is a responsibility that I take seriously. I treat people with respect . I am sensitive to their issues. I've been told that I am a creative thinker. I can look at issues that may be "out of the box" to bring them in line with conventional wisdom to negotiate the best scenarios for candidates and clients.

People I Recruit:

I specifically support the pharmaceutical industry. I work primarily with intermediate level professionals thru to executive management. I seek specialists who know how to bring their acquired experiences to a new environment to make immediate contributions. If you do not have the prerequisite skills I will tell you immediately, so that you can find a more appropriate source for your job search.
