Michael Pino, a 20-year industry veteran was Natura’s International Sales Director. After graduating from Rowan University, he began his career with Therapedic and moved onto Restonic and Natura. Michael loved travel and food and fed these passions by nurturing a career that lured him to different corners of the globe on a regular basis. According to his niece, Linda, work was a passion for Michael, a calling, not a career.
Michael put his family first and enjoyed sharing his love of sports with them – he was an avid Phillies and Eagles fan.
“Michael was a remarkable ambassador for Natura in the international mattress world," said Ralph Rossdeutscher, President of Natura. “Michael was also a good friend and we will miss his sense of humor, his willingness to be there for others and his get-it-done attitude.”
