    RENO, Nev. (PRWEB) September 25, 2018 — Understand, a global medical education company, announced today the addition of Craig Macy as the company’s Chief Product Officer. Craig will be responsible for driving Understand’s global product vision, and design and development, as well as leading product management, customer success, and overseeing all of engineering at Understand.

He built a career helping companies of all sizes navigate the ever-changing technological landscape, while strategically evolving their product lines. Macy has previously served as Entrepreneur in Residence for Haws Corporation, and most recently as legal counsel and strategic advisor to dozens of emerging growth companies across the Mountain West region.
