ABOUT

As Pharmacy Benefit Dimensions’ (PBD) Regional Sales Manager since 2017, Michelle is tasked with increasing the company’s brand recognition and footprint on a national level. She helps brokers and employers understand the advantages of self-funding and the ability to customize plan design to truly fit an employer’s needs.

Michelle believes it is important for clients to understand their utilization needs and how taking a value-based approach to formulary management, coupled with strong clinical programs, can help contain their pharmacy benefit expense while offering employees a robust benefit package.

Michelle and her husband love living in the Buffalo area and felt it was a great place to raise their two grown daughters. Very active in the United States Tennis Association (USTA) community, Michelle describes herself as a mediocre tennis player who still has dreams of greatness.
