@nicolegregory
I am an experienced cosmetic formulation scientist specializing in R&D, stability testing, and regulatory-compliant product commercialization.
What I'm looking for
I am an experienced cosmetic pharmacy scientist with over nine years in research and development, specializing in formulation, stability testing, and product innovation. I lead formulation projects from concept through commercialization while prioritizing consumer safety and regulatory compliance.
At Happy Farm Botanicals I performed stability testing and shelf-life studies under ICH and GMP guidelines, researched new raw materials and formulation technologies, and maintained detailed batch sheets and technical data records. In quality roles I implemented daily QC processes to improve reliability, ensured products met established industry benchmarks, and supported operational excellence. I have supported clinical research teams by creating and updating SOPs, tracking enrollment, and maintaining accurate research documentation.
I hold an M.S. in Pharmaceutics with a specialization in Cosmetic Science and a B.S. in Food & Nutrition Science, equipping me to translate scientific insight into safe, compliant cosmetic products ready for market. I am driven to deliver measurable, consumer-focused product improvements in collaborative, quality-driven environments.
