ABOUT ELENA DIEZ CECILIA
Strategically positioned to succeed in the Life Science Industry because of my unique multidisciplinary background combining a Ph.D. in Drug Discovery and an MBA. My experience spans Johnson & Johnson, biotech start-ups, and a venture capital firm across the USA, Canada, and Europe—giving me both scientific depth and commercial perspective. My analytical skills blend with the leadership and people-skills I developed in roles in External Innovation across therapeutic areas (ONC, IMM, Neuro, CVM) and Business Development to generate a well-rounded individual with a passion for Life Science Innovation. Which technology or drug will revolutionize the way we deal with our Healthcare needs? My aim is to work for an organization dedicated to fostering Healthcare Innovation and improving human lives. With 10+ years of international experience, I have contributed to the search for novel therapeutics and AI platforms tackling some of society’s most pressing diseases. Business-savvy and science-driven, I hold an MBA and completed Leadership & Communication training at Harvard. Overall, I would describe myself as an enthusiastic, adaptable, and impact-oriented - a quick learner who embraces challenges, fosters collaboration, and strives for excellence. I am an effective communicator and a true people person, passionate about making a positive difference in my work community and beyond.
