Jim Hammer

 

Jim Hammer's career began in 1987 after graduating from Eastern Nazarene College (Quincy, MA), with degrees in Chemistry and Education. Employed by Shuster Laboratories, Jim worked in both the analytical chemistry laboratory, and the consumer product development laboratory. Quickly becoming very interested in formulation and cosmetic chemistry, under the direction of Dr. Bernie Siegal (Bristol-Myers, Gillette) and several MIT scientists, Jim advanced  to positions of increasing management responsibility with the company. He remained with Shuster until 2006, when he joined Pharmasol Corporation as the Director of Research and Development. The Pharmasol position gave him much experience with aerosol products, and with the drug development process. Just prior to joining Pharmasol, Jim founded Mix Solutions.

​

Over the years, Jim has created many  new and innovative consumer products, including health and beauty aids, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, transdermal patches, dietary and sports supplements, household cleaners and detergents, chemical specialty products, and foods. His work has been patented.
