About

I believe leadership is about delivering powerful results for people, pets and the planet while harnessing the power of business as a force for good. Mars is committed to sustainable, generational growth. We achieve this by constantly evolving our business and creating value through financial performance, quality growth, positive societal impact and building trust with partners and stakeholders. I’m honored to lead a global organization of more than 150,000 Associates into the next chapter of Mars’ 100 year-old story – a story anchored on shared principles and a singular belief that the world we want tomorrow, starts with how we do business today. I’ve been proud to call Mars home for more than two decades and have spent time learning nearly every facet of our diverse business from fellow Associates across all our divisions (confectionery, food and pet) and multiple markets around the world. Most recently I served as the President of Mars Global Petcare, where I focused on the creation of a Petcare ecosystem which is now the largest part of the business with breadth and depth in nutrition, veterinary health, diagnostics, data, and digital offerings. When I’m not working, I love to spend time with my family – my wife and our three children and of course our furry friends: our guinea pig (only one left) and our dogs Eddie and Twixie. I also love sports – whether it is my own active participation or watching, in particular, soccer (which can also be pretty active!).
