What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation in healthcare, offers growth opportunities, and allows me to contribute to impactful projects.

I am a dedicated professional with a strong background in Biomedical Sciences, specializing in pharmacogenomics and clinical research. My journey has equipped me with effective communication and analytical skills, which I leverage to evaluate biotech and medtech innovations aimed at improving patient outcomes. As a Certified Pharmaceutical Sales Representative, I am eager to transition into life sciences consultancy, where I can apply my scientific mindset and attention to detail to contribute to investment decisions that shape the future of healthcare.

Throughout my academic and clinical experiences, I have developed a robust understanding of the complexities involved in healthcare innovation. My work in pharmacogenomics involved analyzing genetic factors influencing warfarin sensitivity, where I applied evidence-based reasoning to support personalized medicine approaches. Additionally, I have led projects that required interdisciplinary teamwork, such as extracting genomic DNA and optimizing laboratory techniques to address challenges in genetic research.

My passion for healthcare innovation drives me to continuously seek opportunities that allow me to contribute meaningfully to the industry. I am particularly interested in roles that focus on R&D strategy and clinical research, where I can utilize my skills to evaluate and implement solutions that enhance patient care and outcomes.
