Johnson & Johnson jump started my career with an opportunity to join their Information Management Leadership Development Program (IMLDP/ITLDP). My responsibilities rapidly expanded in scope. While first working in validated system testing, project and program management, my role then expanded to enterprise-wide (220+ companies in 80+ countries) endeavors in the area of data and network protection, including a worldwide rollout of Public Key Infrastructure for all of Johnson & Johnson.This background provided the technical, as well as cultural, background to move into interactive web development which transitioned into interactive marketing, including multiple product launches in the areas of virology, neurology and orthobiologics.All of the first hand cultural and client exposure resulted in pilot opportunities to develop healthcare business consulting services in the orthopedic sector. These consulting services yielded such success for surgeons and hospitals (avg 30+% 12 month growth in surgical volumes) that the demand for services out-paced J&J's service offering.
