Arianna Jones
SCIEX
Candidate Statement
More than 25 years ago, I took an unexpected opportunity to move into mass spectrometry, a decision that would shape the course of my career. Within months, I attended my first ASMS and was struck not only by the breadth and depth of scientific research and discovery mass spec enables, but by the friendships, professional connections, and sense of community that surrounded it. Year after year, attending ASMS renews my passion for the impact of mass spectrometry on human health and scientific discovery and my appreciation for the community that moves our field forward. I would be deeply honored to give back to that community as VP for Arrangements.
Arianna Jones earned her B.S. in Animal Physiology and Neuroscience from the University of California, San Diego, with minors in Psychology and Italian Language Studies, recently completing the Credential of Readiness (CORe) program through Harvard Business School Online. She currently serves as Senior Manager, Global Strategic Marketing, Product Hardware at SCIEX, where she leads global commercialization strategies for mass spectrometry technologies and works across product management, R&D, sales, and marketing to translate customer and market needs into successful product strategies.
Arianna Jones has spent more than 25 years in the mass spectrometry community, building a rewarding career that has taken her from the bench to service and field applications, mass spec sales, market development, and, most recently, global strategic marketing. Throughout her career, she has worked closely with scientists and customers to understand their analytical challenges and connect emerging needs with new technologies and commercial solutions. Her experience began in proteomics research during the MudPIT and “shotgun” proteomics era and has since grown to include new product concepts and business cases, product launches, customer insights and market research, and engagement with key opinion leaders.
Arianna was a member of the Industrial Advisory Board for HUPO (2017-2022), during which time she participated in a Mentoring Day at the conference in 2018. She is a long-time member of the “Social Committee” at the SCIEX office in Marlborough, MA, helping organize activities that bring colleagues together and strengthen community. Across her professional and volunteer experiences, Arianna has developed a deep appreciation for the details that turn a meeting or event into an experience: creating opportunities for connection, listening to the needs of participants, coordinating across diverse stakeholders, and, perhaps most importantly, making sure people enjoy being there. She would bring that same energy and customer-focused mindset to VP for Arrangements, helping create an ASMS experience that supports the science while strengthening the community around it.
