BUSINESS ORGANIZATIONSRoss and Westerfield graduated from UC in 2012 with a master’s degree in marketing and public health. They established a healthcare business in 2013. The business sourced and distributed pharmaceutical products in the United States. Ross and Westerfield have been partners for several years sharing profits and losses equally.
