Keith was then appointed Area Director of a Mid-Atlantic ManagedCare company (Charter). While serving these top-notch organizations he managed and led sales and management teams of up to 150 professionals. This breadth of experience provides Keith and his team of partners and consultants with working knowledge of LifeScience, HealthCare, Technology, and related service companies from venture capital to the Fortune and Fast 500.
