With over a decade of experience helping biotech and pharmaceutical programs move from strategy to execution, the work behind the work is what drives me: building the governance, alignment, and momentum that allow scientific teams to focus on what matters most: advancing therapies to patients. I work at the intersection of technical operations and cross-functional execution, supporting late-stage pipeline development in the oncology space. My focus is bringing structure and clarity to complex CMC workstreams, from tech transfer and clinical readiness to supply chain alignment and regulatory milestones. My background spans the full spectrum of the industry, from large CDMOs like Catalent and CROs like Intertek, to lean sponsor-side teams at Alkahest and Galapagos. Each experience has sharpened my ability to lead programs that are both rigorous and adaptive, and to build the operating cadences, cross-functional alignment, and executive visibility that keep high-stakes programs on track.
