- Product Manager, Accessioning and Reporting Software (Pre- and Post-LIMS): Led the development and execution of roadmaps for software that handles the receipt and accessioning of Galleri (multi-cancer early detection, aka MCED) test specimens, and reporting the results of these bisulfite sequencing cancer screening tests in the context of commercial, research, and clinical trial uses.- Ensured the product’s alignment with business goals and user needs by managing relationships with stakeholders across Lab Operations, Lab Directors, Commercial, Business, Clinical QA, Regulatory, Customer Experience, and Software QA, to ensure alignment on product vision and expectations as well as compliance with regulatory guidelines.

San Francisco, California

- Product Manager for Clinical Interpretation and Reporting Software: Led the development and execution of roadmaps for germline variant interpretation and reporting software, specialized for NGS assays for diagnostic, preventative, and exome testing, carrier screening, and non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT). Defined requirements in collaboration with Engineering, Operations, Commercial, and Regulatory teams to align platform and business goals. Developed a feature request workflow, system SLAs, personalized engineer roadmaps, and delivered interpretation and reporting features for company-wide initiatives. Managed weekly releases, user training sessions, and incident resolution, ensuring seamless production deployments and maintenance.- Scientific Program Manager: Led programs for large development efforts across multiple internal digital products. Closely worked with Engineering, Clinical Genomics Scientists, Product Teams, and the Quality & Compliance team to define business requirements and project scope. Majority of programs focused on supporting new genetic testing products and software automation for scalability.

- Initiated and defined the requirements for creating software to identify pathogenic variants in NGS data according to ACMG guidelines and our in-house evolutionary conservation criteria, which streamlined our SOP and decreased our turn-around time by 2 weeks.- Initiated the generation of an in-house online database for all patient records and known variants from previous patients, enabling our team to generate reports quicker and decrease our Test Report assembly time.

Azusa, Ca

- Performed analytical molecular diagnostics of Next Generation Sequencing data in a CLIA- and CAP-certified diagnostic laboratory to identify pathogenic variants in patients’ genomes and define biochemical weaknesses underlying mitochondrial disease, epilepsy, and intellectual disability.- Prepared in-depth clinical reports that were provided to patients and their physicians.- Prepared a detailed and comprehensive SOP for variant interpretation.
