A hard-working and dedicated clinical research specialist, currently working in pediatric oncology study design and implementation with 5 years of post-graduate clinical research experience in a variety of both communicable and non-communicable disease areas. I first entered into clinical research in 2019 as a clinical research associate, working with patients on a range of trials related to HIV (treatment and prevention), fatty-liver disease, and COVID-19. In 2021, I transitioned my professional focus to pediatric oncology. Since then, I have served as a scientific writer and protocol coordinator, working amongst study teams as the clinical document specialist. My day-to-day efforts are to monitor the development of clinical research trials and studies from the point of early concept until they are finalized for site implementation. I work closely with various study teams to coordinate and manage all activities related to the development of research documents such as protocols, informed consents, regulatory reviews, and other study development forms. In 2023, I was promoted to Senior Protocol Coordinator at Children's Oncology Group and my role expanded to encompass more leadership and development opportunities. Prior to my current position, my background includes 2 years of professional experience with AmeriCorps (2017-2018) and the American Red Cross (2018-2019), working in disaster preparedness, response, and relief, as well as international humanitarian aid. My educational background includes a Bachelor of Science in Biology from Portland State University (2017) and a Master of Public Health degree from the University of Southern California, Keck School of Medicine (2021).
