A Post-graduate in Biochemistry with 18+ years in the biotech industry, focused on downstream process development for biosimilars like monoclonal antibodies, fusion proteins, antibody fragments, and peptibodies. I've worked across the full product lifecycle—from early development to late-phase, tech transfer, and commercialization. Over the years, I have led cross-functional teams through complex tech transfers, scale-ups, and process implementation projects. I am comfortable bridging the gap between process development and manufacturing, making sure things run smoothly on the ground—whether it's troubleshooting in GMP environments or supporting production with strong process design and risk management. I have driven process optimization efforts that improved yield and cut costs, led validation activities and supported global regulatory filings. I strive to make things simple and effective—whether that’s refining a process, solving a technical issue, or aligning teams across functions. I'm passionate about developing efficient, compliant, and scalable processes that bring high-quality biologics to patients. A key part of my leadership approach is building strong, empowered teams. I coach scientists and engineers to think strategically, communicate clearly, and operate confidently in fast‑paced environments. I focus on creating clarity, removing barriers, and driving alignment across functions to accelerate timelines and strengthen organisational capability.
