Chief Financial Officer

World's largest independent supplier of medical X-ray tubes and image processing solutions.

SENIOR FINANCE EXECUTIVE: LIFE SCIENCES & MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY. When I joined my first medical technology company after years of investment banking, I knew I had found my calling. Even though I was hired for transactional expertise, applying those skills to companies with groundbreaking medical technologies and tackling operational challenges ignited a passion that is still very much with me today. Recently I joined the team at Teknova as CFO to apply the skills and learnings from working at larger organizations to a smaller but fast growing life sciences tools provider. With the emergence of viable cell and gene therapies, we are well positioned to take advantage of market opportunities. While Treasurer and Head of Corporate Development at Varex, a global imaging company, I partnered with the CEO and CFO to make critical, strategic decisions and grew the company through technology acquisitions and investments. As a result, the newly independent spinoff matured operationally and evolved as it confronted the same economic and financial uncertainties as many other companies. Relationships I built with financial institutions ensured our capacity to take advantage of organic and inorganic business opportunities and complete three financings during the pandemic. CAREER MILESTONES. My career has been filled with financial and operational achievements that have helped organizations get to the next level, transform, and grow: I led the standardization of financial planning and budgeting for a global multibillion revenue medical device company. I steered the spinoff (IPO) of Varex from Varian. Over the years, I led due diligence and negotiations for billions in acquisitions and financing transactions. EXPERTISE. My specialized skills in bringing new technology from inception to market; translating strategy into execution; dealing with clinical and regulatory hurdles; generating change, turnaround, and growth; building high-performance organizations; leveraging qualitative and quantitative frameworks; and building cross-functional relationships and teams based on trust, recognition and transparency are the strategic areas in which I excel.
