Bio
Vipul Rajpara ✯ Global Packaging Professional
Mark was a very organized and productive engineer during his time in my group. He managed a program independently that involved multiple packaging systems and successfully helped the team bring it to Clinical Trial. He showed strong organizational, management, and communication skills throughout the project. Mark also helped train a contractor who was working on the same project. He worked well with cross-functional teams along with his team members in the Packaging Group. Mark was able to deliver on all objectives on or before project deadlines and would be a great asset to any team he is on.
Elon Goldbaum
Mark was a former employee and colleague of mine. Mark is highly analytical and is able to leverage this with making risk-based logical decisions. He has demonstrated time and time again that he is able to balance his technical skills with his project management skills. He has no problem moving out of his comfort zone to manage a non-packaging project with high risk and visibility and deliver on time. Mark’s adaptability has allowed him to expand his background and strengthen his skill set. He is very adept in taking on challenging opportunities, managing teams, and driving projects to completion.
