Executive Overview

As Chief Financial Officer for Cencora, I am committed to maximizing long-term shareholder value, driving profitability of growth initiatives, and maintaining a high level of integrity and transparency. I manage Cencora’s financial strategy and oversee our accounting, corporate finance, investor relations and treasury, tax, audit, and shared business services teams. I joined Cencora in 2015 following the company’s acquisition of MWI Veterinary Supply, where I had the honor of leading the company through many years of growth, its initial public offering, and its ultimate sale to AmerisourceBergen (now Cencora). I’m passionate about Cencora’s ongoing commitment to improving our sustainability and environmental impact, and I am thrilled to support these efforts as Executive Sponsor for Cencora’s Global Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) Impact Council.
