💊 I'm working towards a world where political priorities, public policies & health systems support optimal access to medicines while enabling & sustaining innovation—and do both in harmony. Making innovative medicines more accessible is NOT a zero-sum game. The people who create medicines, regulate them, pay for them, provide them, and take them to survive & thrive all depend on each other & can flourish together.🤝For more than a decade, I have been working in consulting firms, startups & social enterprises to:🔹Create & lead public-private partnerships, multistakeholder alliances & industry coalitions in health & life sciences🔹Design & advocate for evidence-informed improvements to health policy, planning & financing🔹Advise senior leaders—from Deputy Prime Ministers to CEOs—across government, industry, academia & civil society on how to manage trade-offs & work better togetherI have a special interest in rare diseases & orphan medical products, including cell & gene therapies, and in neuroscience/neuropsychiatry.I have a track record of success working internationally, especially in growth & emerging markets, with:🔹Companies & industry associations in health, life science, biopharma, biotech & medtech sectors🔹Government entities like health, finance & trade ministries, medical product regulatory authorities & HTA bodies🔹Multilateral organizations like UN, WHO, World Bank, G20, APEC, ASEAN, Andean Community & African Union🔹Patient advocacy groups, clinical & academic research institutions, hospitals, universities & NGOsI work in between & across functions & therapeutic areas:🔹Corporate affairs, government affairs, public affairs, public policy, market access, regulatory, patient advocacy🔹Neuroscience, oncology, hematology, immunology, metabolic, infectious diseaseI've had the honor to work with manufacturers and partners to help launch or improve access to incredible products like SOLIRIS, BEQVEZ, ZOLGENSMA, GARDASIL-9, and BEYFORTUS.I'm energized by skiing, mountaineering, sailing, chess, poetry, quantum physics, meditation, the scientific & spiritual study of consciousness, and the promise of psychedelics as a transformative treatment paradigm for mental health.🏔️ Climbing Résumé🔹Pico de Orizaba (18,491') | via Jamapa Glacier🔹Ixtaccihuatl (17,340') | (attempt) via Ayoloco🔹Mt Whitney (14,505') | via Whitney Trail🔹Mt Rainier (14,410') | via Disappointment Cleaver-Ingraham Glacier🔹Full Loop (Single Day) of Mt Elbert (14,439') & Mt Massive (14,429')🔹Multiple summits & ski descents of 14K-ft peaks in Colorado
