Guest Bio: 

Pat Carroll is a devoted husband and father of four but also a storied athlete and a respected leader in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industry. His journey began on the basketball courts of St. Joseph’s University in Philadelphia, where he played as a Division 1 athlete. 

Pat was a key player on the legendary SJU team that achieved a perfect 27-0 record during the regular season, earning them the #1 national ranking and a memorable run to the Elite 8 in March Madness.

In his senior year, Pat’s hard work culminated in being named the Atlantic 10 Player of the Year and the Big 5 Most Outstanding Player. That season, he led the nation with an impressive 135 made 3-pointers and set the record for the all-time leader in career 3-point field goal percentage in the Atlantic 10 Conference.

Transitioning from the adrenaline of basketball to the fast-paced world of pharma and biotech, Pat has become a Commercial Director at Inizio Engage. His expertise now drives team development, sales strategies, and innovative practices in the industry.

Pat is passionate about sharing his knowledge and experience, regularly contributing tips and best practices on LinkedIn, where he also indulges in his love for the art of shooting—both on the court and in business strategy.
