As the communications and creative lead at Discovery, an agency focused exclusively on patient advocacy, I work with pharma and biotech partners to develop innovative and compelling strategies that aim to improve the lives of people living with disease. I leverage my experience across multiple therapeutic areas including oncology, HIV, GI, neuroscience, and rare disease, as well as my collective knowledge from past positions in pharma, communications, and nonprofit organizations, to craft compelling stories that resonate with diverse audiences and stakeholders.In my current role, I enjoy the challenge of creating meaningful and engaging content that educates, inspires, and empowers patients and caregivers. That's the work. But the heart of what I do is not in all the words and business jargon, it's in the relationships. At Discovery, I’m fortunate to be part of a dynamic and diverse team that shares a common vision of driving better health outcomes for the communities we serve.
