Solving organization’s talent and growth challenges is my WHY in life. I bring depth of experience and insights gained at the intersection of pharmaceutical leadership, strategic consulting, and clinical practice. As medical doctor early in my career, I acquired an appreciation for the importance of patient-centered solutions, in pharma I navigated the complexities of drug development, and in consulting I utilized my experience to serve as advisor while delivering on engagements. With my effective blend of skills and experiences, I can develop holistic solutions, lead transformational initiatives, and add significant value. Much of my success can be attributed to my ability to build relationships of trust with key influencers, including Top-20 pharma C-suite executives, Ministers of Health and Finance, and NGOs. My approach is collaborative as I focus on delivering the actionable solutions and measurable results that raise my credibility and business impact. Notable Career Highlights: ➜ Grew revenue for companies served through relationships with major pharmaceutical companies, including Eli Lilly, Pfizer, Bristol Myers Squibb, AstraZeneca, and GlaxoSmithKline. ➜ Launched joint venture and created the 7th largest generic pharmaceutical company in South Africa within 10 years.➜ Instrumental to the launch of startup distribution operations for HIV/AIDS antiretrovirals in 15 countries across Africa during tenure as health advocate and lobbyist gaining public support.➜ Leveraged extensive network of contacts and experience in the life sciences and healthcare industries to drive business development for advisory services and executive search.
