20+ Years of Extensive Experience with Bioprocess Development As a motivated scientist with adaptable experience in BioPharma and Industrial biotech, my career has focused on conceiving bioprocesses in the lab to make them a reality for commercialization. I take pride in my ability to deliver on new therapeutic platforms or targets and renewable biofuels/bioproducts. My background can support multiple microbial systems in upstream and downstream processing while using analytical methodologies to evaluate them.Areas of Expertise and Achievements include:• Responsible for high throughput fermentation process development that scaled to 30L/300L single-use bioreactors for the production of biotherapeutic products.• Design and implement experiments for process optimization through statistical interpretation of data for four IND candidates • Led technical transfer of upstream and downstream processes to an internal manufacturing team and external CMOs/CROs.• Successfully utilized both molecular biology and process optimization approaches to reach project goals and improve yields.• Leadership and management of junior team members to drive the daily effort in pursuit of critical objectives Enthusiastic about new opportunities and learning new skill sets I always seek new challenges and ways to expand my professional development. While I appreciate interesting PD roles and find them immensely rewarding, I also look to expand my knowledge of management, cell culture, manufacturing/MSAT, or novel renewable platforms. The best way to move forward is to collaborate today!Contact me if you are searching for a scientist to drive results with urgency and a leader unafraid to roll up his sleeves to make a difference in the lab. I have proven expertise that has delivered on moving R&D pipeline projects to late-stage manufacturing successfully. So, let's connect and build something that will captivate the next generation of biotech and benefit patients or the environment.
