Worked closely with the CEO and a very seasoned and talented team to help Humanity Health develop its Life Sciences Specialty Retained Executive Search Practice. Humanity Health, Inc. is focused on building the premier career acceleration and talent sourcing platform for underrepresented leaders, innovators and professionals in healthcare and life sciences. Humanity Health's platform provides professionals with a unique level of access and support for their career development while simultaneously providing more inclusive and equitable placement outcomes for its employer partners. Humanity Health’s initial seed capital was provided by Deerfield Management Company, which is the nation's largest dedicated healthcare investment firm with $14 billion in assets (as of 2020), and a combined portfolio of typically more than 200 private and public investments across life sciences, medical devices, diagnostics, digital health and health service industries at all stages of evolution, from start-ups to mature companies. Recently (June 2022), Humanity Health raised $6 million in a Series A funding led by Jumpstart Nova with follow-on participation from Deerfield Management. Jumpstart Nova is the first venture fund in America to invest exclusively in Black founded and led healthcare companies. Jumpstart Nova invests in seed and Series A stage companies in the areas of tech-enabled services, biotech, diagnostic devices, health IT, digital health, and consumer health & wellness. The fund is strategically backed by leading healthcare organizations in the US such as Eli Lilly and Company, HCA Healthcare, Cardinal Health, Atrium Health, Henry Ford Health System, LHC Group, Meharry Medical College, and American Hospital Association

Co-founded and served as a Managing Partner of Cornerstone Search Group (CSG) from 2000 to 2021 (20+ years). CSG is a specialty life sciences search firm that our team built from “ground zero” up to become recognized by Hunt Scanlon as a Top 50 Life Sciences Search Firm, and by Forbes as one of Best Recruiting Firms in the USA. In addition to co-building, developing, leading, and managing the overall day-to-day activities of the entire firm, I also led the development and establishment of a successful M.D. Specialty Practice. This M.D. Specialty Practice helped Pharma & Biotech Companies fill crucial positions at all levels requiring/desiring a M.D.: CxO, Ex/Sr/VP and Ex/Sr/Director level roles. These roles included Executive/Scientific/Medical Leadership, Therapeutic Area Heads, Global Program Leaders, Clinical Research & Development Leaders and Clinical Study Leaders for both Early-stage and/or Later-stage Clinical Development Programs, and HQ Medical Affairs Strategy Leaders and Medical/TA SMEs (pre-launch/launch and/or postlaunch/LCM). I performed my role as a Managing Partner as a player-coach where I was very hands-on planning, leading, managing, executing and completing Retained Search and Recruiting assignments from A to Z (from intake through strategy and research, outreach, interviewing, offer, acceptance, resignation and onboarding) for a broad range of different positions in multiple functional areas that included Discovery, Clinical Research & Development, Program Management, Project Management, Medical Affairs, Drug Safety, Pharmacovigilance and Risk Management, and Regulatory Affairs among other functions. After 20+ years with CSG, I decided to sell my partnership interest in CSG to pursue other challenging opportunities to employ my ~40 years of search and recruitment experience, and 20+ years of specialized pharmaceutical and biotechnology retained search and recruitment experience.
