May 21, 2020

WILMINGTON, NC – May 21, 2020 – Alcami, a North Carolina-based contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO), today announced further additions to strengthen its senior leadership team. Brian Dillion has been appointed to the role of Vice President of Regulatory Affairs and Quality Assurance and Jacquelyn Uribe has been appointed to the role of Vice President of Quality Operations. “Jacque and Brian bring broad compliance expertise with a track record of success upholding the rigorous standards required by both customers and regulators in high growth environments,” commented Chief Financial Officer Eric Evans.

Brian Dillion brings over 35 years of experience, including more than 20 years previously at Alcami in progressive quality roles. He has a proven track record of success in upholding the highest pharmaceutical compliance standards and in working directly with the FDA as an applicant holder. Brian spent the last two years as VP of Quality, Regulatory, and Compliance at Noramco. We are pleased to have Brian’s regulatory and compliance expertise at Alcami and to continue the quality culture that he fostered during his previous tenure, which included over 35 successful regulatory inspections by both FDA and foreign agencies.

Jacquelyn Uribe’s technical expertise and quality leadership make her highly respected by both customers and regulators. Jacque joined Alcami as part of the acquisition of TriPharm Services.  She played a crucial role in the design and build-out of this isolator-based manufacturing site, which will offer liquid and lyophilized vial products as well as pre-filled syringe products. Previously at Gilead, she oversaw the Quality and Compliance of externally manufactured products, which included aseptic processing, blow-fill-seal, and medical device operations across 16 sites globally. Before Gilead, she held progressive technical and quality roles across ten years at Alcami, including Site Head of Quality for the sterile manufacturing facility located in Charleston, SC.

Alcami has assembled a unique combination of respected leaders with broad industry experience and deep technical acumen. “These changes set the stage for an exciting next chapter at Alcami,” commented Kimberly McClintock, VP of Marketing and Client Services.
