What I'm looking for

I seek a role in regulatory affairs, chemical instrumentation, data analysis, or quality review where I can apply chromatography expertise, SOP development, and regulatory compliance to deliver accurate results and improve processes.

I am an analytical and precision-driven laboratory scientist with over eight years' experience in regulated environments, focusing on chemical analysis, quality assurance, and R&D support.

I have extensive hands-on experience with chromatography and mass spectrometry—LC-MS, GC-MS, HPLC, and GC-FID—running high-throughput analyses, interpreting complex data, and ensuring data integrity and turnaround time adherence.

I design and document SOPs, lead method validations, support internal and external audits, and train staff on standardized sample preparation and instrument protocols to uphold GMP/GLP standards.

I collaborate across QA, R&D, and manufacturing to drive root-cause investigations, implement CAPA, and improve processes; I seek to apply analytical rigor, meticulous documentation, and regulatory insight to support operational excellence and product quality.
