Let's Get StartedIntroducing Sherri Smith
In gaining my 25+ years of new product development experience, I had the good fortune of collaborating with some incredible formulators and cross-functional members. With a background in a variety of product types and chemistries, I have developed a successful approach to creating high quality products which meet performance criteria within budget constraints in a timely manner. The streamlined process begins with effective communication to identify the scope of the project and ends with the successful launch of your product(s).
