History of the Company

Strategic Solutions, Inc. was founded in late 2000 by Ms. Bonnie Hibschman and Dr. Marissa Carter. In late 2006, Bonnie decided to leave the company to pursue other interests. Until that point, she had been the company's CEO and Chief Editor, as well as being an excellent writer. Her drive, enthusiasm, creativity, and wit was a driving force in the company's formation, growth, and success, and she is sorely missed.

Following a move to Cody, Wyoming, the company reincorporated into the state of Wyoming, and has since largely refocused on research, writing, and editing in the medical and psychological areas.

During 2007, the company has been adding a number of talented individuals to its staff, and below you will find their credentials.

She has also worked in Sales, Marketing, Technical Service, as well as Product Development, thus gaining insight into best practices of teams, TQM, and project management. Since the inception of SSI, she returned to medical research, and has collaborated with several groups in the areas of ophthalmology, wound care, evidence-based medicine, and eating disorders, the results of which have been recently published, with many more papers in press. Dr Carter's strengths lie in the many scientific disciplines in which she worked that she brings to bear on medical problems.
