VP, Market Intelligence
Healthcare & Science business of Thomson Reuters
I’m currently the Vice President of Market Intelligence for the Healthcare & Science Business of Thomson Reuters where my principle responsibility is to provide expert views and analysis of Science,Technology and Medicine (STM) market developments. I’m a veteran market and competitive intelligence analyst with experience in the publishing and telecommunications industries. Following an early stint as a professional librarian, I began my market analysis career as an information professional working in the Bellcore Information Research Center. I eventually became the manager and later director of the IRC's client relations program and built a research analysis team. We provided a variety of market and competitive intelligence services for clients in the telecommunications industry. I also served as a senior and principal competitive analyst for Telcordia Technologies.
Although, my specialty has been competitive analysis, my career path has led me to the broader professional context of “market intelligence.” I really enjoy projects that explore emerging markets, especially those stimulated by new technology. During my telecoms days I focused a great deal of my energy on the then emerging market for residential broadband services. More recently, after I shifted over to the publishing industry I have been interested in emerging markets centered on Web 2.0, Semantic Web and Health Information Technology. I enjoy working on extensive deep dive projects and following through with presentations that permit me to discuss findings with subject matter experts. I also enjoy writing and have contributed a couple of articles to the CI Division newsletter.
I’ve been fortunate during my career to do a great deal of travel around the world. I’ve enjoyed working with clients from many parts of the US and other countries. In addition, I’ve delivered a number of presentations at proprietary corporate meetings as well as public industry conferences both in the US and globally.
I have been active participant in the SLA CI Division. I have also been a member the NFAIS conference planning committee since 2008. I’m a firm believer in the Division and hope to contribute a great deal of energy to increase the visibility of the program.
My personal interests are varied and include music, sports, photography and travel. When I was young I was a serious musician and considered a career as a flautist. I enjoy baseball and often remark that my first experiences in CI occurred during my youth as I scoured over various baseball magazines devoted to evaluating the various strengths and weaknesses of baseball teams, players, and their management. I am married and wife and I currently shuttle between our residences in New York and New Jersey.
My education included a BA in Communications from Hunter College (CUNY) and an MLS from Queens College (CUNY).

Duplicating things that have already been proven
to work is a great strategy when you are trying to grow your business and build
a team. The player had his picture, albeit
with a strange grimace and geeky affects.
