What is your role at AngioDynamics, and what do you do?
I joined the team as an Oncology Supervisor in January 2019 and later moved into the role of Manufacturing Manager. Currently, I serve as the Director of Operations, overseeing all manufacturing activities at AngioDynamics, both in-house and with our contract manufacturers. My responsibilities also encompass customer service, manufacturing engineering, and supply chain operations.
What do you like most about your work?
With a background in semiconductors and automation, I recognize the impact AngioDynamics has on its patients. From removing clots using AngioVac and AlphaVac thrombectomy devices to treating patients with the NanoKnife System, our devices have a profound impact on patients and their families. The stories I can share with my teams about these cases are truly remarkable.
What has been your proudest moment at AngioDynamics?
Collaborating with Laura Piccinini, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Cardiovascular and International, and Chad Campbell, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Oncology and Interventional Devices, has allowed us to enhance our teams from within. From supply chain and operations to clinical, marketing, and regional sales, the teamwork necessary to ensure a product is delivered—starting from the moment an order is placed—relies on the success of all departments within AngioDynamics.
Outside of work, what are some of your interests or hobbies?
I have dedicated eight years to active-duty military service and currently serve as a Sergeant First Class, Drill Sergeant in the Army Reserves, totaling 17 years of service.
When I’m not working, you can catch me at the gym, enjoying quality time with my girlfriend, Kayla, and our two dogs, Roxie and Bambina. I also love working on cars, trucks, and motorcycles, including my Corvette, spending time at the gun range, or exploring the great outdoors while hiking.
