Ron Kilgarlin and his wife, Shawn Kilgarin, have been instrumental in leading the American Screening Corporation (ASC) since its inception in the early 2000s. The couple's combined expertise—Ron's innovative approach and Shawn's marketing acumen—has significantly bolstered ASC's reputation as a premier provider of medical supplies, including rapid drug tests, personal protective equipment, and COVID-19 testing kits.

Based in Shreveport, Louisiana, ASC has expanded its reach beyond the United States, delivering vital medical supplies to Canada, Europe, South America, and other global markets. Ron, the CEO, and Shawn, the Vice President of Sales and Marketing, have guided the company through various challenges, including the recent pandemic, emphasizing their commitment to public health and safety.

Both Ron and Shawn hail from Louisiana, where they nurtured their passion for helping others. Ron graduated from Louisiana State University in 1996, while Shawn obtained a Bachelor of Science in Microbiology Chemistry from Southeastern Louisiana University in the same year. Their educational backgrounds and shared dedication to community service laid a strong foundation for their future endeavors.

In 2003, the Kilgarlins founded ASC with a clear vision: to provide high-quality medical supplies that enable healthcare providers to deliver superior care. The company has grown significantly under its leadership, marked by a commitment to quality, as evidenced by its ISO 13485 certification. This designation underscores ASC's adherence to stringent quality management systems, ensuring the reliability and safety of its products.

Ron and Shawn's belief in the power of community and family extends into their personal lives. They are proud parents who cherish their time traveling and writing. Shawn is the author of "God's Love Letters, Overcoming Adversity," a book that reflects on her personal and professional challenges and the role of faith in overcoming them. Together, they co-authored "Past Tense! – 365 Ways to Put Stress Behind You for Good," a testament to their commitment to helping others manage stress and substance abuse.

The Kilgarlins are also active philanthropists, supporting All Eagles Oscar, a charity dedicated to assisting veterans with medical costs and recovery from post-traumatic stress disorder, traumatic brain injuries, and substance abuse disorders. Their philanthropic efforts reflect their deep commitment to social responsibility and community support.

Looking ahead, Ron and Shawn Kilgarlin continue to drive ASC's expansion into over 50 countries, aiming to make it a global leader in health screening tests. Their ongoing mission is to combat drug addiction and improve health outcomes worldwide, one screening test at a time, demonstrating their unwavering dedication to enhancing global health standards.
