I have had the pleasure of knowing Charlie for 25 years.He is one of the finest people, I know,always ready to give a helping hand to any friend or acquaintance. Although he is one of the most accomplished Chief Executive"s I have known, he is also a remarkable team builder and creative thinker.On a personal note I have seen Charlie in good times and Bad, but he never loses that optimistic "can do" attitude His accomplishments are well known, but his humility, dignity and honesty round out his impressive personality.It is truly an honor to call him a lifelong friend Stephen J Shapiro MD FACS

Charlie and I go back to 1985 when we worked together for what became Apria, the largest home medical equipment company in the US. In 1993, he acquired my home I.V. Therapy business with a company he turned around and then formed Coram, which is now a division of CVS. It is the US leader in this industry. Now in the role of CEO at Nuzuna, Charlie's energy is focused on the US personal fitness industry, which is a huge market with a big upside. Their core product utilizes EMS technology to greatly enhance the effectiveness of each workout. Under Charlie's leadership and based on his successful track record watch for Nuzuna to become a leader in this industry.
