“I am very pleased to join Windtree, with its multiple late-stage assets and programs that aim to address unmet needs in significant cardiovascular and respiratory markets,” Hamill said. “ It’s an exciting time for the company and I look forward to being part of a talented team focused on building value.”
Hamill received a B.S. in Accounting and Business and Computer Science from DeSales University and is a certified public accountant.
