What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to leverage my extensive compliance experience while fostering a culture of safety and quality in a dynamic organization.

With 18 years of experience in product compliance and management, I have developed a deep understanding of the complex regulatory landscape and industry standards governing the design, manufacture, and distribution of various products. My expertise lies in ensuring adherence to safety and performance regulations, quality benchmarks, and environmental directives.

I excel at conducting thorough risk assessments and providing comprehensive guidance throughout the product development process, from concept to market release. My primary goal is to help organizations navigate these complexities skillfully, enabling them to achieve their objectives while maintaining the highest standards of safety, quality, and compliance.
