What I'm looking for
I am an experienced Scientific Writer and editor with a strong background in technical communication, regulatory compliance, and technical documentation. I have a proven track record of interpreting complex scientific data and translating it into clear, concise, and engaging content for diverse audiences. My ability to collaborate with subject matter experts (SMEs) and manage project timelines has consistently resulted in high-quality standards in medical and technical documentation.
In my current role as Principal Content Developer at Terumo BCT, I lead the development of instructional labeling and technical documentation for hardware, disposables, and software projects. I ensure compliance with regulatory standards while collaborating closely with cross-functional teams to create user manuals, IFUs, and training materials for medical devices. My initiatives to streamline regulatory documentation processes have significantly improved compliance and expedited submission turnaround times.
With a Master’s degree in Analytical Chemistry and extensive training in medical writing and regulatory documentation, I am dedicated to maintaining accuracy and clarity in all written materials. I am passionate about mentoring junior writers and continuously updating content to reflect changes in regulatory requirements and customer feedback.
