With more than 20 years in executive leadership in manufacturing and private equity companies, Pearson’s expertise in building financial infrastructures, revenue growth strategies, and facilitating strategic alignment to create high-performing organizations will continue to be the key to Perlick’s ongoing and future success.
Pearson’s alignment with the brand go beyond the walls of Perlick as she is an avid winemaker and gardener on her hobby farm, proudly utilizing the Perlick equipment in the storage and dispensing of her craft.
