“I am pleased to welcome Dennis to our leadership team,” said Novolex Chairman and CEO Stan Bikulege. “His proven track record of growth through both M&A and organic initiatives as well as his extensive experience in leading financial operations will make an immediate impact as we continue to position Novolex for the future. I am confident Dennis will provide strong leadership and prove an excellent addition to the Novolex team.”

Norman joins Novolex from nThrive, Inc., a healthcare IT and services company, where he contributed to significant transformation at the company including integrating multiple acquisitions.
