About

Pharmacist with a cross-disciplinary background in early-stage drug discovery, pharmaceutical quality, and computerized systems.After two years of experience in a pharmacy environment, where I developed a strong foundation in pharmaceutical quality, procedures, and patient-focused responsibility, I transitioned toward the pharmaceutical industry to work on translational and system-level activities supporting drug development.I am currently undertaking a traineeship at Akkodis as a Junior CSV & IT Compliance Engineer, contributing to the validation of computerized systems used across R&D-supporting, Quality Control, and pharmaceutical manufacturing environments, in accordance with GxP and GMP requirements.In parallel, I built a solid technical background in cheminformatics and data-driven drug discovery, completing a specialization in Cheminformatics and AI-Driven Drug Discovery (NeoVarsity).I developed a QSAR project for MolLogP prediction, involving:• Generation of a 1,452-molecule virtual library using RDKit• Development of a Random Forest regression model (R² = 0.87, MAE = 0.50)• Feature importance and Tanimoto similarity analysesI also completed a Master in Pharmaceutical Quality Assurance (QAcademy), strengthening my understanding of GMP, quality risk management, CAPA systems, and data integrity, with the aim of bridging innovation, compliance, and patient safety within drug discovery and development pipelines.I am particularly interested in roles and projects at the intersection of early drug discovery, translational research, pharmaceutical quality, and computational approaches, where robust compliance frameworks enable reliable, human-relevant, and data-driven R&D.Core skills & tools:Python · RDKit · scikit-learn · pandas · Chemoinformatics · QSAR · CSV · IT Compliance · GxP · GMP · Data Integrity · Quality Risk ManagementAlways open to professional dialogue and knowledge exchange in Drug Discovery, Translational Research, Pharmaceutical Quality, CSV, and Computational Chemistry.
