Tactile Systems Technology Inc. has appointed Sherri Ferstler as senior vice president of sales to replace Eric Pauls, who resigned.
“Sherri is a strategic leader with over 25 years of experience in the healthcare industry and a successful history of developing and leading high-performance teams at scale,” Tactile Medical President/CEO Dan Reuvers said. “Sherri brings extensive executive sales leadership experience, most recently within Johnson & Johnson Vision, where she led a team of over 325. She’s proven herself as a strong developer of teams that deliver high-growth results on both the top and bottom-line. She’s led multiple successful product launches, resourcefully used data to expand field-productivity and proven herself as a coach at multiple levels. Adding Sherri further enriches our executive leadership team, our ability to build and operate at scale, and our ability to lead change and expand productivity. I also want to thank Eric for his contributions to Tactile Medical and the patients with chronic conditions that we serve.”
Before joining Tactile Medical, Ferstler was vice president Sales, North America, for Johnson & Johnson Vision since 2016. Ferstler led J&J Vision's field and inside sales teams, strategic accounts, and training functions selling Acuvue brand contact lenses across multiple channels.
Ferstler began her career in 1992 with Parke-Davis Pharmaceuticals, where she served in a variety of sales, sales management and training and development roles. She joined Pfizer in 2000, serving as a district sales manager for all branded pharmaceutical products until 2003, then as director of Division Operations and as a regional manager for Pfizer’s Urology and Respiratory product portfolios. From 2007 to 2016, Ferstler led regional and national sales teams for Endo Pharmaceuticals, Bayer Diabetes Care, and Mylan Pharmaceuticals.
