Clay started as an entry level employee and over his 15 year career became a trusted leader within our organization. He played a key role in growing our business into a market leading provider of validation and monitoring solutions and field services that it is today. He continues to be a valued partner and I’d highly recommend consulting with him for any projects and/or leadership roles in the life sciences industry.
