As the Chief Executive Officer of Strateos, a leading provider of cloud-based laboratory automation solutions for life sciences, I leverage my PhD in Infectious Diseases and Microbiology and my extensive experience in the biotech and pharma industries to drive innovation and growth. I joined Strateos in 2021 as the Chief Business Officer and was promoted to the CEO role in 2023, thanks to my successful track record of establishing strategic partnerships, securing funding, and expanding the customer base.I have over 20 years of experience in business development, sales, and marketing for various companies that offer consulting, clinical research services, tools, software, and assays for the life sciences sector. Prior to Strateos, I was the Vice President of Business Development at Premier Research, where I led a global team of professionals and generated over $400 million in annual revenue. I have also worked with several start-ups and blue chip companies, where I contributed to the development and launch of novel products and platforms that leverage AI/ML, robotics, and genomics. I am passionate about creating value for customers, investors, and stakeholders by delivering cutting-edge solutions that advance scientific discovery and improve human health.
