Lil' Kim
Director of Barketing
Our honorary Director of Barketing, Lil’Kim is a much-loved part of the Maestro Team. She has been present for some of our most pivotal strategic meetings and taken part in charitable team activities. Her years in the medical device industry spans multiple companies where she has provided the input that only she can. Not to worry, our audit-trailed access software keeps Lil’Kim away from areas where closed-toed shoes are required (anywhere product is kept).
