Growing up in pharma, Tara has direct experience living within the complexity of a multifaceted organization. She has been in your shoes and understands the enormous value of breaking down institutional silos to thrive together in collaboration. It is in her DNA, rooted into the way she grew up with 15 years working in pharma plus her Dad retired from GSK after 25 yrs. and this is what continues to drive her healthcare and customer driven mindset. 

Tara is a proven portfolio, program, project, and change management practitioner with Global Healthcare exposure across R&D, Sales & Marketing, Operations, and Technology leading teams from strategy concepting to business results delivery. Her project delivery expertise is in digital implementations, technology transformations, sales force and marketing design optimizations, innovation, and implementing portfolio management capabilities. She knows project management must stretch beyond delivery and stick which is key where change management is needed. 

In creating Artemis Factor, she wanted to address a gap she was faced with which was to find a company of seasoned pros who had deep understanding of healthcare; not newly minted MBA’s, junior resources, or consultants with only a passing experience in Life Sciences. But most importantly she wanted a team that had aligned passions and interests that will always do what is best for customers. 

Outside of work she enjoys spending time with her husband, three children, reading, and going to the shore with her family.
