What I'm looking for

I seek senior medical safety or pharmacovigilance roles where I can lead safety strategy, ensure regulatory compliance, mentor teams, and contribute to clinical development and post-marketing safety.

I am an MD Pharmacology professional with 21+ years of healthcare experience and over eight years focused on pharmacovigilance, medical safety and regulatory document authoring. I have led medical safety reviews for clinical trials across phases and therapeutic areas, prepared aggregate reports (DSUR, PADER, PBRER), conducted signal activities, and supported EU QPPV escalation and audit readiness.

I combine clinical patient-care experience with expertise in protocol and IB review, medical monitoring, safety plan/budget oversight, and team leadership. I am experienced in ICH-GCP, Schedule Y and drug development processes and have authored regulatory and safety documents to support labeling, RMPs and clinical overviews.
