Jon Desalvo

A city kid from Pittsburgh, Jon grew up helping his dad run the family-owned landscaping business. This is where he found his passion to lead and build organizations through process and people development, with a focus to always drive continuous improvement.

After graduating from the University of Dayton with a B.S. in industrial engineering, Jon began his career in the automotive industry. With the challenges of work, family, and continuing education, Jon earned his M.S. in manufacturing operations from Kettering University. In 2009 Jon decided to take his experience and educational background to the world of medical manufacturing. The last 20 years have provided the opportunity for Jon to hold many different functional leadership positions.

Throughout his career, he has lived by two guiding principles: hope is not a strategy, and success is only limited by desire.
