Bio
Laura Vickers, MBA
I had the distinct pleasure to manage Mary Jane as well as work with her in several roles since 2008. Mary Jane has a deep understanding of the animal health industry and brings a unique perspective to tackle any complex business problem. One of her key strengths is her positivity and ability to consult with others to develop win-win strategies. Mary Jane is a consummate team player; helping and mentoring others while ensuring goals are achieved. I would highly recommend Mary Jane as a strong, creative, positive leader and I hope to have the opportunity to work with her again in the future.

Mary Jane and I worked together through the integration of two companies; forming one of the largest organizations in its segment nationally. Mary Jane showed skills beyond those in her resume. She is masterful at preparing and executing plans and at taking the "point person" role. Mary Jane also took on "interim" roles and led people and teams of people as well as processes she was not initially familiar with and consistently delivered strong results. She is a capable mentor, strong at holding others accountable, and works with a professional demeanor in any type of interaction. I would highly recommend Mary Jane to any company who is looking for an exceptional teammate, leader, and results-producer.
