“As SHARx has grown from the seed of an idea into one of the nation’s leading patient advocacy companies, the need for a President with Drew’s experience has become clear,” said CEO Corey Durbin. “His long history of managing the growth of pharmaceutical services companies in various stages of their development will serve us well as we transition into the next phase of our rapid growth.”
