The DermaMed team.

I’ve been with DermaMed since 2004 and have held positions in every department. From ordering raw materials, scheduling coating campaigns, inside sales, sales manager and most recently VP of Sales. I’ve learned the business from the ground up, which has helped me build a strong knowledge of adhesives.

I love the way DermaMed approaches a new project, which is finding a solution to a problem or filling a need in the medical industry.

I’m excited by the fact that DermaMed tapes are used to help people. We don’t “make tape”, we provide products that are used to improve everyday life for patients worldwide. DermaMed has made huge strides in the past 25 years to support ongoing changes in our industry.

Improvements on wear time, and advances in low trauma adhesives. I can’t wait to see what we can do with the next 25 years!

I have been in the converting and adhesive backed materials industry for the last twelve years. Prior to DermaMed, I started out as a final assembly inspector in college and over the years progressed into a Business Development Executive position with a large converter calling on the medical space.

I love DermaMed’s ability to offer “off the shelf” material solutions or when necessary, custom material constructions based on specific application requirements. I believe this allows us to better partner with our customers to provide a higher performing material that meets or exceeds their requirements.

I have over 40 years of experience in PSA tape, in both the converting and manufacturing of tape products.

My many years of hands-on experience help my customers design and develop solutions for their applications – whether it’s a new product, a device redesign, a product enhancement, or a cost savings.

Since my beginning in the tape industry, I have sold almost every type of tape, in almost every market. I’ve worked in converting, both in sales and manufacturing, and I even ran some machines.

Working with DermaMed has been a wonderful addition to my tape career. DermaMed maintains high standards for their facilities, especially in cleanliness and capability. DermaMed is constantly looking for a better way to serve our customers, through innovation and communication.

I am excited about what comes next. I really enjoy my interactions with my customers and the exchanges of information, followed up by working with team members at DermaMed to create new products and solutions. Every day is a good day, maybe I can get another 40 years in.

I assist our customers directly by working with our internal team to make sure the order process is smooth from receipt of a purchase order to shipping out the door. Additionally, I support the sales team with sample requests. DermaMed operates with a heavy emphasis on teamwork – our team is always willing to help one another – and I enjoy being a part of that.
