What I'm looking for
I am a pharmacist with sixteen years' cross‑sector experience spanning community, hospital, retail, academic and regulatory pharmacy. I hold a Master in Public Health and a B.Pharm, and I combine clinical insight with regulatory expertise.

In commercial and clinical roles I planned and grew pharmaceutical businesses—driving a 580% growth in one division—implemented diabetes care programs, and managed ARV and chronic care services while training staff and students.
I am a member of international and national pharmacy associations and I bring a collaborative, results‑driven approach to regulatory strategy, market expansion, product launches, and patient‑centered pharmacy services.
