About me

Introduction	I am the Manager of Meetings Technology Services at U.S. Pharmacopeia in Maryland. In this position, I manage the company’s 16,000 square foot meetings center and maintain virtual meeting space for USP’s five global offices. My company operates five global locations as well as dozens of international training centers around the world. It is imperative that we are able to train pharmacists, practitioners and lab workers to do their jobs correctly. However, there is not the ability for these workers to come to our training labs in Rockville on a regular basis (most of these labs are in 3rd world countries), and so, we do much of our teaching and training virtually. My goal is to further study the ways in which we can access people all over the world through new technologies.
