I've spent the past 20 years as a product development and operations leader in the medical device and software-as-a-service (SaaS) industries, and I've loved every minute of it. Along the way, I've also had the opportunity to lead amazing regulatory, quality, clinical, training, and account management teams.With a Master's in Electrical Engineering and MBAs from London Business School and Columbia University, I've honed my skills in innovation, problem-solving, and turning complex concepts into easy-to-understand stories.My career has taken me on a global adventure, from the US to Chile, the UK, and now Switzerland. I have also completed consulting projects in Greece and India. Here in Switzerland, I am currently learning German (B1), and on weekends my wife and I enjoy spending time in the mountains conquering Via Ferratas. I'm also an amateur photographer, capturing our adventures, and a maker, always looking for my next project.I thrive in dynamic settings that require creative problem-solving, strategic thinking, and continuous learning. My love for collaboration is not just a part of my work; it's a part of who I am. I always bring a forward-thinking, solution-oriented mindset to every project, fostering an inclusive and team-oriented environment.In the medical device sector, I've led product development and regulatory efforts from concept through launch and post-launch surveillance for over eight products distributed in more than 60 countries. I also spearheaded the technical, regulatory (Class II), clinical, and operational aspects of developing and launching the Pellevé aesthetics brand at Ellman Intl, which Cynosure later acquired. At Urologix, I worked with Class III medical devices focused on Microwave Ablation for treating Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH).In the SaaS sector, I drove growth, leading to the successful sale of eBackpack, an EdTech SaaS business, through cross-functional technical, operational, and strategic leadership. At Signaturize, I guided the product from MVP to successful launch through multiple pivots, demonstrating my ability to navigate complex challenges and deliver results.My skill set includes Agile, analytical skills, change management, design control, GMP, IP management, international business, process and product development, product launch, project management, quality assurance, regulatory affairs, software life cycle management, SaaS, and strategic planning. I have also completed ISO 13485 Lead Auditor Training and have a strong track record in ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements.
