I am thrilled to lead an amazing team of accomplished salespeople at Illumina. My goal is to grow the extended team performance and to grow and coach these talented individuals in the team to make their respective career trajectories as favorable as they want. I believe that is a good way to get the best results. It's exciting to work with the facilitators of groundbreaking science and help change the way healthcare is done. The Genomic revolution is here, and the faster we adopt the better for the health of all of us. This journey has only just started!
