Debra Ann Crew, a successful American businesswoman, was born in Honolulu, Hawaii, on December 20, 1970.
Crew earned a bachelor’s degree from the University of Denver and an MBA from the University of Chicago Booth School of Business.
She served in the US Army from 1993 to 1997 as a military intelligence officer, eventually achieving the rank of captain.
Crew began her professional career with Kraft Foods in 1997, where she held a variety of managerial positions.
She spent seven years working for Kraft before switching to Dreyer’s, a Nestlé business, where she worked from 2004 to 2008 before rising to the position of Senior Vice President of Marketing for Frozen Snacks.

From 2008 until 2010, she worked at Mars, Inc. as general manager and chief marketing officer of Petcare US. Crew joined PepsiCo in April 2010 and is now the president of the Western European Region, which has its headquarters in Geneva.
In August 2012, she was chosen to fill the newly created position of President of Pepsico Americas Beverages, which included overseeing the Beverage Growth Ventures Group, the Latin America Beverages operation, the North American warehouse sales operation, and the North American operations of the Tropicana and Gatorade brands.
In August 2014, she was named president and general manager of PepsiCo North America Nutrition.
In October 2014, Crew resigned from PepsiCo to become the president and chief commercial officer of the R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company.
Since December 2013, she has been a director of the business. The timing of her switch from the food to the tobacco sectors shocked observers given that she had just been the CEO of PepsiCo’s North America Nutrition for two months.
In September 2015, she was promoted to president and COO. She managed $8.6 billion of the company’s estimated $10.7 billion in post-merger sales as COO.
One of the few female CEOs of a big cigarette company in the United States is she. When a big company named two women CEOs back-to-back, it was an uncommon change.
In 2014 and 2015, she was included on Fortune’s list of the 50 Most Powerful Women in Business.
