About Stephanie M.

I am a driven and highly motivated medical writer with experience working with sponsors and investigators to prepare and develop clinical protocols, informed consent forms (ICF), clinical study / evaluation reports (CSR/CER), Investigator Brochures (IB)/ Investigational Medicinal Product Dossiers (IMPD) and develop solutions for clinical trials in phases I-IV (including post-market surveillance studies). I have experience working as full time contractor for a large global pharmaceutical company (Merck) and also have experience working for a mid-size CRO with a wide variety of sponsors. I thrive when working in a fast-paced and dynamic environment where continued professional growth and cross-functional collaborations within a team are a large part of my day to day activities. I am also very passionate about volunteering with a local dog rescue organization and trying out new local venues with family and friends!Feel free to reach out to me! I am always happy to meet other industry professionals!
