I work with leaders in early-stage biotech and healthtech companies to help refine their product development programs and craft a compelling go-to-market strategy. A summary of several past engagements:Invitrometrix - Working with the CEO, we developed a marketing plan associated with the commercial launch of their first product for cell based assays, the Discovery-Q. At the time, Invitrometrix was an early-stage startup in Lowell, MA. Opentrons - Working with the CPO and Director of Product Management, we developed a go-to-market strategy for the team to start a NGS consumables product line to complement their hardware platform. At the time, Opentrons was a Series A-stage startup in Brooklyn, NY.

As the Director of Growth and Customer Success at Elucidata, I led teams responsible for marketing and customer support. We recently pivoted from being primarily a service provider to add a SaaS life science data analysis platform. To do this we updated all our outbound messaging, redesigned the website, and deployed a new approach to generating content. These changes allow us to more effectively market our products digitally. Our Customer Success team is responsible for technical pre-sales and post-sales support of all our accounts. Our customers love our deep knowledge in metabolomics, transcriptomics, and image analysis. We love contributing to their discoveries in any way we can!

My project in the lab of Balaraman Kalyanaraman involved the study of Parkinson's disease mechanisms in various models of PD. We worked to understand the mechanistic link between free radical production and mitochondrial dysfunction during the progression of Parkinson's. Both of these things have been clearly observed in Parkinson's patients, but their connection remains undefined. In parallel, we examined the role of bioenergetic dysfunction in breast cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy.
