I blend my expertise in science, medicine, people and business strategy to develop and execute solutions tied to key business needs. I enjoy building strong relationships with clients and colleagues, mentoring the next generation of leaders in the industry, and being a trusted and respected partner.I'm excited to use those skills to build Buckle Therapeutics into the first-choice mucosal drug applicator company. Our goal is to increase access to drugs that are critical to save lives in the homes and hangouts of America: naloxone and epinephrine. Our applicator is easy-to-use, secure, discrete and low cost.

I possess a deep understanding of the biotech and pharmaceutical industries and have honed my ability to translate complex scientific concepts into effective business strategies.My experience in biotech startups, product launches, customer development, market research, and biotech consulting has equipped me with the tools to identify market opportunities/risks and develop strategic plans that maximize business outcomes.I love working with young startups to start the commercialization process, and to introduce them to people who can help.Drop me a line!
