Manager, Business Operations and Product Development
Oct 2024 — Present · Raleigh, NC, US
Ichor is focused on developing proprietary green chemistry solutions as the newest class of broad-spectrum fungicides. Our lead product candidates are safe, affordable, biodegradable, and are demonstrated to be highly effective across a wide range of fungal pathogens in more than 10 crops.Fungal pathogens like Asian Soybean Rust, Fusarium, Septoria and others account for more than $200 billion of crop yield losses per annum. Each season these devastating diseases build resistance to existing fungicide solutions, many of which are decades old. Ichor\'s lead product candidates show remarkable promise as standalone solutions and in combination with existing products.At Ichor Agriculture, I support the company’s mission to develop a new mode of action class of green chemistry fungicides by providing strategic and operational support across business development, market research, and execution. My role includes identifying and engaging prospective partners and investors, supporting the development of pitch decks and external materials, and conducting competitive and market analysis to inform business strategy. I also contribute to financial modeling and budgeting efforts, including investment cases and cost-benefit analyses for both internal planning and external engagement.In addition, I help manage relationships with contract research organizations (CROs), vendors, and other third parties, ensuring successful execution of R&D trials and laboratory research aligned with company goals. I contribute to the creation of technical content, white papers, and investor-facing presentations, and assist with internal and external communications. Beyond core responsibilities, I lead and support special projects and cross-functional initiatives, helping Ichor remain agile and growth-focused in a rapidly evolving market.
