Anna Thomas
Associate Manager of Packaging
SeaSpine
Anna is currently the Associate Manager of Packaging at SeaSpine, a spinal medical device company based out of Carlsbad, CA. She graduated from Michigan State University in 2017 with a degree in Packaging and a minor in Environmental and Sustainability Studies, where her passion and eagerness to learn about sustainability sparked. Prior to joining SeaSpine, she worked for 3 years as a Packaging Engineer at NuVasive, as larger spinal medical device company also based out of Southern California. Over the course of the past 6 years, Anna has made it a priority to spend time working with purchasing, supply chain, distribution, sales, and nurses in the field to understand the “big picture” of how SeaSpine’s products get packaged, and where sustainability can make an impact. She still performs the day-to-day job of a typical packaging engineer (design, development, testing, and implementation), but whenever there is spare time, Anna is eager to implement sustainable practices within her work. Being at a smaller medical device company has given Anna the opportunity to integrate herself into understanding the complex supply chain of “loaner set” style Orthopedics. Anna is determined to use her knowledge of the time and energy it takes to get a single use product packaged and to the market to influence other early life or end of life teams at SeaSpine, and long term, in the market overall.
