I am an experienced medical doctor (M.D.), with over 40 years of international drug development experience in several, large pharmaceutical companies and biotechs across the United States and the European Union, and have supported and led the development of life-saving drugs for various diseases. I am passionate about improving patient-access to medicine, innovation, and disruptive technologies. I believe in a hollistic approach to developing medecine, and that it is key to understand every part of the drug development process: pharmacovigilance, statistics, and medical affairs. I've also cultivated a life-long interest in learning languages, becoming fluent in French, English, and German, and conversant in Spanish and Japanese.I am a strategic thinker, and have experience as a CEO and board member.
