Tom has had the opportunity to work under Michel Lapierre's mentorship these last sixteen months, and we deeply appreciate Michel's leadership, dedicated service, and significant contributions he made while he was President of our Pharma Business Unit. Michel and I started our journey together in 2016 with the acquisition of NJM and through Michel's vision we were able to both create and successfully grow the ProMach Pharma Business Unit.
