I am an experienced Senior Engineer and Regulatory strategist, leveraging over two decades of expertise in product development and engineering within the FDA-regulated products space. My primary focus is assisting clients in navigating the intricacies of product development and crafting regulatory narratives tailored to the chemistry, manufacturing, and controls (CMC) section of their Premarket Tobacco Product Applications (PMTAs) across various product categories. My specialization lies in harm reduction products, including e-vapor devices, e-liquids, and pouched products.As a product developer, I'm passionate about tackling consumer challenges with innovative solutions. I've amassed an extensive portfolio of inventions and technical designs, with over 120 patents issued in the US and numerous international patents, However, what truly brings me satisfaction is the collaborative journey with over 76 co-inventors who have contributed to these patents.A significant portion of these patents pertain to the enhancement of aerosol delivery devices. This complex understanding of the mechanisms governing aerosol formation and consumer satisfaction enables me to collaborate with clients throughout the product development lifecycle, from conceptualization to study design and testing.Before my time at Consilium Sciences, I spent 18 years at Altria Client Services, where I held roles ranging from Engineer to Scientist to Manager within Research and Product Development. During my tenure, I contributed significantly to the organization's initiatives in tobacco harm reduction, including notable projects such as the development of the MarkTen e-cigarette and various innovative aerosol delivery devices that focused on reducing carbonyls in aerosol.Throughout my career, I've been dedicated to bridging the gap between business needs and scientific possibilities. I firmly believe that asking better questions leads to better answers. With a knack for seeing the bigger picture and breaking it down into actionable steps, I advocate for a team-oriented approach to innovation. By leveraging insights from consumer research and practicing consumer empathy, I strive to deliver products that truly resonate with the market.💼 Broad Business and Technical Experience:🔍 Consumer Insights and Empathy💡 Design Thinking🧠 Ideation and Conception🌩️ Brainstorming🎤 Presentations and Communications📑 Regulatory Strategies (PMTA CMC)🛠️ Engineering Development🛒 Consumer Product Development📜 Patent Generation
