I am a dedicated pharmacy professional with over 7 years of experience across retail, health-system, and clinical environments, now focusing my career on the pharmaceutical industry, research and development, and regulatory policy. My background has given me a strong foundation in patient care, medication management, sterile compounding, and remote patient monitoring - skills that translate into a deep appreciation for how science and policy shape real-world outcomes. My clinical and academic experiences at institutions such as NYU Langone Health, UNC Health, and Duke Health allowed me to contribute directly to patient safety and care quality, while also exposing me to the broader challenges of translating innovation into practice. Along the way, I gained valuable exposure to workflow optimization, vaccine administration, patient counseling, and the development of educational resources, which reinforced my ability to bridge evidence, policy, and practice. Building on this foundation, my current professional interests lie at the intersection of pharmaceutical R&D, regulatory outcomes, and healthcare policy, with an emphasis on clinical trial design. I am passionate about advancing strategies such as model-informed drug development, ethical extrapolation, and regulatory harmonization to address persistent gaps in medicine. I am driven by the belief that innovation in drug development must balance scientific rigor with equity, ensuring that children, rare disease populations, and underserved communities are not left behind. As I continue to grow in the pharmaceutical and regulatory space, I aspire to contribute to initiatives that accelerate safe, effective therapies while shaping policy frameworks that support global collaboration and patient-centered outcomes.
