Pharmaceutical Sales & Commercial Leadership

I help bring life-changing psychiatric and neuroscience treatments to the providers and patients who need them — combining full-cycle account management, new-product launch experience, and a track record of top-tier sales performance.

About

I'm a pharmaceutical sales professional based in Fairhope, Alabama, with over a decade of experience in commercial account management, full-cycle recruiting, and specialty product launches. Since 2024, I've served as a Senior Therapeutic Area Specialist in Neuro Psych at Bristol Myers Squibb, where I was hired to help launch Cobenfy (KarXt) for schizophrenia — driving adoption through outreach to psychiatry and primary care providers, with a particular focus on community mental health centers.

Prior to BMS, I spent five years at AbbVie (formerly Allergan) as a Specialty Representative promoting Vraylar across bipolar disorder, depression, and schizophrenia, consistently ranking among top performers. Earlier in my career, I led sales and operations at Prodigy Disc Golf, managed full-cycle recruiting desks at TalentArc and Aerotek, and built a foundation in new-business development, account growth, and team leadership that carries through everything I do today.
