Durham, North Carolina, Us

My team is responsible for developing product concepts that bring new traits to consumers and growers for both agricultural commodities and fresh produce. We take these product concepts and work collaboratively across the development pipeline with our gene editing technology to create better options for farmers and consumers. At the front of the pipeline, teams focused on Crop Science, Genomics and Data Science formulate the genetics of the product while Trait Testing and Technology Development validate the efficacy of the trait and put our products on the path to commercial deployment.

San Diego, Ca, Us

Responsible for overall development of the Agrigenomics business including defining new product concepts, developing marketing content, setting sales strategies, product management, pricing, top and bottom line portfolio management and market development.

St. Louis, Missouri, Us

In this role I am responsible for helping realize the potential of our interactions with our external partners in the areas of biological based control of pathogen and transgenic disease control. To accomplish this goal, I work with prospecting and the technical teams to identify new external opportunities, manage the risk in the overall portfolio, assure portfolio alignment with R&D technical goals and launch timetables and develop joint research plans to help both parties achieve their goals.

St. Louis, Missouri, Us

Responsible for leading the corn transgenic discovery efforts to improve yield under stress and non-stress conditions. My team of scientists worked to incorporate quantitative genetic, genomic and molecular biology data to affect targeted changes in the corn plant and measuring the outcomes of these changes. My responsibilities included selecting, managing and developing talent for the project, working across a large matrix organization to accomplish our technical goals, creating an innovative environment, all while operating in the context of numerous collaborations from small academic partnerships to large joint efforts between companies.

St. Louis, Missouri, Us

Responsible for development and testing of drought resistant corn. Lead a proof-of-concept team focused on using molecular biology to achieve more stable, higher yields through transgenic modification and the initial years of field and controlled environment testing. Lead the project in context of a collaboration between two large, multinational corporations. Responsible for ensuring data delivery, integrity of decisions and decision making criteria and communicating results both internally to management and to our collaborators. Identifying and developing IP positions in conjunction with patent scientists.

St. Louis, Missouri, Us

Responsible for gene mapping and genomics associated with native traits in corn and soy. Delivered genetic markers tagged to key disease and quality traits. Developed new techniques exploiting next generation sequencing to improve the speed, cost and rigor of gene mapping projects. Developed and maintained an expansive set of projects to support IP portfolio.

Ames, Iowa, Us

Conducting leading edge research in genomics, specifically leveraging large developmental genomic datasets in a statistical framework to help unravel genes involved in plant development, specifically agronomically important traits.
