Laura, the force behind Rpharmy, channels her passion into enhancing safety for patients and healthcare workers. Motivated by a personal tragedy from a medication error, she's committed to constant innovation. Starting her career nearly 30 years ago in sales and marketing for major corporations, Laura stood out in a male-dominated field, valuing customer relationships deeply. Her journey in healthcare tech saw significant milestones, like digitizing the University of Wisconsin’s formulary in the late '90s. With her husband, John Paxton, she acquired and rebranded Formulary Productions to Rpharmy, focusing on safety and compliance solutions. Now, while Austin is home, Laura, John, and their beloved dog, Lola, often explore the world, supported by their grown children and their spouses.

John turns innovative ideas into reality, specializing in project management and team leadership. Joining forces with Laura at Formulary Productions in 2001, they rebranded it as Rpharmy after acquiring it in 2004, driven by a personal loss due to a medication error. Over two decades, John's expertise has propelled Rpharmy to serve over 100 healthcare clients, focusing on safety and strategic growth. Beyond work, John's passion for travel enriches the team's spirit, organizing memorable trips from Mexico to the Caribbean. His knack for blending business with pleasure shines at Rpharmy's engaging conference suites, showcasing his ability to create a fun, productive environment.
