Clinical research and IRB quality assurance professional improving compliance, data integrity, and trial operations across cross-functional teams.
What I'm looking for
I’m a certified Clinical Research and Quality Assurance professional with over four years of experience in IRB coordination, clinical trials, regulatory compliance, and human subjects research. I ensure strict adherence to federal regulations (FDA, ICH-GCP, CFR) and internal SOPs while optimizing internal operations and strengthening stakeholder engagement.
In my IRB Coordinator + Quality Assurance Specialist role, I led IRB submissions and quality assurance reviews, coordinated meetings and expedited reviews, and partnered with PIs and research staff to resolve application deficiencies. I also managed document control systems (IRBManager, GlobeSync), trained new hires, and improved clarity and efficiency through client-facing guidance materials and SOP/process optimization.
