As a Clinical Researcher and Scientific Affairs Leader with dual PhD in Medical Science and over 15 years of experience, I enable the development and growth of pioneering health technologies by combining my scientific background with business strategy acumen. I have led cross-functional teams to numerous successful clinical initiatives, advisory board programs and high-impact publications. I excel at developing scientific communications and clinical research strategies, and have a strong track record of navigating clinical development processes. As a Key Opinion Leader (KOL) and Public Speaker, I have shared my expertise on a global stage and also led KOL programs to drive successful product launches and clinical trials. With a deep understanding of clinical science and a commitment to evidence-based solutions, my passion lies in working with forward-thinking organizations that prioritize research, embrace collaboration, and are dedicated to improving health outcomes worldwide.
