Having worked 25+ years across multiple disease areas and stages of drug development, I discovered my favorite niche: supporting radioligand therapies in oncology—a field that demands agility, innovative thinking, continuous learning, and above all, clear communication and teamwork. My passion for communication started early. Already in childhood, I noticed how conversations often failed because people lacked context or did not set the right frame. At Novartis, I had the opportunity to grow and to put my curiosity into impact: • Leading a soft-skills workstream within the Analytics (Statistics and Pharmacometrics) department • Teaching quantitative scientists on communication and collaboration skills ("Do you speak statistics" course) • Coaching peers to deliver impactful and confident presentations • Mentoring colleagues—both statisticians and non-statisticians—internally and externally I believe that effective communication is the bridge between ideas and solutions—and yes, I truly enjoy listening to a well-delivered presentation. Outside of work, my creativity takes a different form: cooking. Unlike the regulated world of clinical trials and prespecified statistical analyses, my kitchen is a playground where recipes are suggestions, not rules. I love experimenting, exploring flavors, and building on taste experiences—because innovation isn’t limited to science.
