SKILLS
ABOUT KELLY VAILLANT
I am passionate about improving the lives, quality of life, and well-being of patients who are in desperate need of the products and treatments being developed by the companies I have been a part of and work with. Every one of us has had the unfortunate experienced of seeing a loved one, a friend, a colleague suffer with the pain, frustration, and the anxiety of illness. The feeling of hopelessness, the fear of the unknown, and the feeling of absolute helplessness is heartbreaking. I joined the pharma and biotech industry to try and change this – or at least help in some small way. During my career, I have had the opportunity to be a leader and innovator across various areas in clinical development. I have built, grown, and led global functions in the areas of Clinical Data Management, Clinical Operations & Project Management, Clinical Trial Disclosure & Data Transparency, and Clinical Systems. I have extensive experience leading and facilitating global operations, vendor/alliance management, leading and facilitating cross-functional groups/initiatives and executive strategic committees, and developing (or improving) and implementing processes and technologies to facilitate clinical development and clinical trial operations.My focus is on creating and implementing the most effective, efficient, and cost-effective approaches to address the myriad of challenges faced during the development of new products and treatments. I am a Six Sigma Green Belt, was voted Clinical Data Management Chair for PhRMA in 2008 and am a founding member of CDISC. With 20+ years of experience I am just as passionate about my work today, if not more so, than I was on day one. If I can in some small way contribute to improving the outcome, lessen the pain and suffering, improve the quality of life, or allow patients and their loved ones some precious extra time together… I would consider myself successful.
