WishBone Announces New Area Vice President, Mark Nixon

WishBone is pleased to announce our latest addition to the team, Mark Nixon, as Area Vice President of US Sales for the Southeast. In his region, Mark will focus on growing our distribution network, strengthening relationships within the orthopedic community, and expanding the company’s market share.
 
Mark began his medical device career with service to Smith & Nephew and Zimmer Biomet—bringing 15 years of diverse orthopedic experience in total joints, trauma, sports medicine, extremities, and spine. A multi-disciplinary perspective and tenure in each sub-specialty have facilitated professional ascent to roles of increasing responsibility in commercial leadership.   
 
In addition to valued seasoning with instrumented hardware and software systems (navigation, robotics, CAS) in the OR theater, Mark brings advanced biologics training with past service to AlloSource Tissue Bank, where he earned rigorous CTBS certification from the AATB. Most recently, he served as Vice President for Camber Spine, with the leadership of large sales teams and purview over IDN and GPO customers. 
 
Mark did his undergraduate work at Samford University and procured his MBA while working full-time. He has also completed post-graduate studies in finance at Emory’s Goizueta Business School. Additionally, Mark has been accepted to Harvard University’s executive education program with planned work in corporate strategy. 
 
A commitment to mission-led organizations prompted Mark to join Wishbone Medical, as well as his desire to help lead a team that’s committed to each other and the stakeholders they serve.
