Michael Denney

Rich and I met through our mutual connections within the chemical contract & toll manufacturing industry. I have been fortunate enough to work with Rich on multiple projects over the past couple of years. Rich has an extensive knowledge of chemistry and chemical processes, and has the experience in the lab to back it up. His background paired with his enthusiasm for building customer relationships, and impeccable communication skills, separates Rich from your average sales person. Rich is a true professional, and is a great asset to his company and his customers.

Brian Watson

Richard has a solid well-rounded skill set that allows him to pick up anything very quickly and to bring the project to the next level. He has solid project management skills, an innovative spirit, a leadership mentality and pharmaceutical processing expertise. He is also possess a nice, outgoing personality – very nice to have had as a co-worker.

      • Jan 2022 - Present

      Experienced chemical manufacturing professional focused solely on custom chemical synthesis and specialty chemical manufacturing. Areas of expertise include multi-step custom synthesis (small molecule compounds, small molecule biopolymers, PEG's, etc.), inorganic synthesis (metal-ligand complexes, heavy metal deposition, custom azides, etc.), hazardous and obnoxious material control/handling/manufacturing, air-sensitive/water-sensitive compound handling (glovebox, Schlenk lines, custom inert systems), continuous chemistry (flow systems, fixed-bed, trickle-bed), polymer development and manufacturing (custom polymers, hydrogels, small molecule-polymer combinations), supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) and separation, subcritical water extraction, distillation (simple, fractional, continuous), and more. Customer-centric mindset focused on meeting client budget, timeline, and performance/result expectations to support translational development within the pharmaceutical, nanotechnology, aerospace, medical device, and specialty chemical industries. Unique focus on supporting start-up growth from pen-and-paper concepts, to product introduction, and ultimately commercial launch. Responsibility for managing 50+ active projects including academia R&D, life science biopolymers/hydrogels/small molecules, cosmetic materials, nutraceuticals/nutritionals, petroleum-based products, specialty chemicals and polymers. Customer base ranges from academia and startups/spinoffs to Fortune 500 companies.

      • Jan 2019 - Jan 2022

      As project manager of custom manufacturing, my role is to take new technologies/chemical entities from ideation to reality. I work with customers from all areas including agrochemical, nanotechnology, biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, medical device, specialty custom chemicals, toll chemical manufacturing, food-grade manufacturing/packaging, cosmetics, fragrances, eyecare (photopolymers), and even childrens toys (e.g. putty's and slimes). I provide custom synthesis/manufacturing solutions for any and all chemical needs, ranging from the milligram scale up to global commercialization with a laser focus on quality, timing deliverables and cost efficiency. Having established an extensive network of industry experts and a diverse portfolio of manufacturing capabilities, I can ensure that each and every customer inquiry will be deeply evaluated and receive my full attention until an optimal solution is delivered for my clients.

      Working as a core team member within the parenteral processing group, my focus and expertise lies within the processing of elastomeric closures and final-fill containers. Serving as the current team lead for our Vision processing efforts and providing integral support to the West R&D fill-finish team, my objective is to evaluate new means of Vision inspection and apply these learnings to adopt higher quality levels of product inspection. Having a state-of-the-art Vision inspection platform has further developed West's capabilities in detecting real-time defects which are further investigated to determine root-cause for defect origination. Following this process, execution of CAPA helps determine a remediation strategy in resolving the origin of these elastomeric defects.Additionally, as part of being an integral member of the R&D fill-finish team, I have gained a strong understanding of parenteral filling (vials, syringes, cartridges, and other various containers) using an extensive filling platform never before seen in the pharmaceutical industry.

    • Associate Scientist (R&D - New Product Development)
      • Jun 2015 - Dec 2017

      Engaged in a variety of development projects involving prototyping and testing of new, innovative products in West’s core elastomeric business unit. Key responsibilities include solving technical problems during prototype manufacturing and testing. Assisting development engineers in evaluation of existing product portfolios and executing protocols related to new product development while effectively communicating results and conclusions to essential project team members.
