Dynamic biotech commercial leader and investor with strategic and operations expertise via senior roles with Pfizer, Genentech, Johnson & Johnson and Kite. Spearheaded 7 drug launches and lifecycle growth to $7B in annual revenues. Knowing that better patient outcomes lead to profitability inspires my proven, patient-centric approach to drive long-term value and revenue for effective treatments. I am known as an effective product and organizational leader. I’ve positively changed the trajectory of blockbuster drugs, shifted mindsets and built capabilities to enable businesses to evolve for more competitive and dynamic environments.CEOs and Board members say I “see around corners” via my big picture POV and my ability to stay ahead of industry trends. I transform and inspire organizations in need of innovation, see opportunities and new ideas in obstacles and can make the impossible possible, even with limited resources. A key to my success: I’m a commercial leader with a “bench to bedside” mindset. I put the patient first. I uniquely bridge the clinical and commercial phases using a three-pronged approach to transform lab innovations to deliver better patient outcomes:🔶 Ecosystem Relationships: developing trust-based relationships with the entire ecosystem – from academia, entrepreneurs, investors, government to industry and all the other stakeholders throughout the process.🔶 Cross-Functional Strategic Leadership: bringing a range of experts to the table to gain a 360-degree perspective and develop holistic strategies.🔶 Data-Driven Execution: using patient and customer insights to inform all phases, and agile execution to drive growth.I stay close to industry trends as an angel investor in the health care sector, and as a mentor by steering early-stage companies through commercialization to ensure successful market entry of new therapies and technologies. As a consultant and advisor in the past year, I’ve helped early-stage healthcare companies secure $20M in funding and have positioned them for marketplace success. As an Executive-in-Residence with Springboard Enterprises, I’ve played a leading role in guiding women-led life sciences and health tech ventures by leveraging industry relationships and providing critical commercialization insights.My passion for better healthcare stems from personal experience. When my dad was diagnosed with a rare neurodegenerative disease, I saw firsthand the need to re-write the rules of healthcare. Today, my passion and life’s purpose are making healthcare more effective, efficient and more human.
