What I'm looking for

I’m looking to help a life sciences team deliver compliant R&D and manufacturing outcomes—especially around pharmaceutical impurities and nitrosamines—by leading technical development, validation/tech transfer, and clear regulatory-ready documentation in a collaborative, innovation-driven culture.

I’m a life sciences innovator and bioscience engineer with 14 years of experience, focused on turning complex scientific questions into compliant, manufacturable outcomes. I specialize in life science consulting around pharmaceutical impurities and nitrosamines, from risk assessment to confirmatory work.

As Owner and Principal Consultant at Clarbonyx, I support product development and manufacturing in a global context, covering formulation and packaging, raw material management, scale-up, tech transfer, and analytical (chemistry) and toxicology-focused testing. I also lead technical regulation and “(health authority) lobbying” with strong scientific documentation, including technical writing for regulatory submissions.

Previously, I served as R&D Manager at Perrigo, where I handled strategic product development and manufacturing responsibilities. I also brought hands-on engineering and program delivery experience through roles including Production Engineer and Production Department Manager, strengthening process optimization, process safety, process monitoring/KPIs, and continuous improvement.

My recent work includes serving as Pharmaceutical Impurity Management Lead subgroup CYP within the HESI GTTC Nitrosamine Research Program, leading cross-functional efforts including goal 4 QSAR/QM. I bring a committed, proactive “can-do mentality,” strong communication, and a critical, argumentative persona to solve problems without losing business focus.
