Matt has over 30 years of industry experience and has served in management and leadership capacities with leading pharmaceutical organizations specializing in contract manufacturing and proprietary branded drugs. Prior to joining CMC Pharma, he had the opportunity to lead key departments such as Research and Development, Quality Assurance, Project Management, Regulatory Affairs, Quality Control, and Microbiology. He worked for a company that progressed from 8 people to approximately 200 and added internal manufacturing capabilities. Matt’s role evolved to include the implementation of the quality systems required to support an FDA-acceptable QC/RD laboratory and lead the Quality Unit in the buildout and commissioning of a state-of-the-art greenfield parenteral manufacturing site. Prior to his departure, Matt oversaw the submission of approximately 30 drug applications, resulting in the approval of over 10 ANDA’s and 1 NDA.
Earlier in his career, Matt progressed primarily in Quality. In that period, he was given the opportunity to work on a wide variety of projects including the implementation and validation of complex software solutions such as LIMS and ERP, quality oversight in the renovation and qualification of a former device manufacturing site to a parenteral site, lead remediation efforts required to mitigate an FDA official action classification at multiple parenteral manufacturing facilities, and restructured a Quality Control laboratory to improve both compliance and efficiencies. During his tenure, these companies received approval of over 30 generic drug products and 15 NDA’s
