Experienced clinical research leader with a focus on compliance.
What I'm looking for
I am an experienced and proactive clinical research leader with a strong expertise in navigating unexpected challenges while keeping studies on track. My skills in project management and team leadership are complemented by a robust focus on compliance and study integrity. I am known for staying organized, maintaining clean documentation, and ensuring audit readiness, all while making the most of downtime to stay ahead in fast-paced settings.
Currently, I serve as a Clinical Research Coordinator II at Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist, where I manage complex clinical trials in rare diseases and neurodegenerative disorders. My role involves overseeing study start-up, maintenance, and close-out, ensuring regulatory compliance and accurate documentation. I also support the development and tracking of research budgets, working closely with project managers to monitor expenditures and handle IRB submissions, adverse event reporting, and stakeholder communication.
Previously, I worked as a Clinical Research Coordinator I and an Administrative Assistant, where I honed my skills in subject enrollment, data management, and administrative efficiency. I am committed to contributing to operational excellence and advancing clinical research initiatives.
