What I'm looking for

I am seeking senior product roles in diagnostics where I can lead integrations, optimize laboratory workflows, and drive platform consolidation within cross-functional teams.

I am a Senior Product Manager with deep expertise in diagnostics, IVD, medical devices, and laboratory workflow engineering, focused on driving platform consolidation and systems interoperability. I have led global integration initiatives, harmonized platforms after acquisitions, and translated technical requirements into scalable product solutions.

My career highlights include rationalizing large SKU portfolios, building multi-entity QMS frameworks that improved international sales close rates, and designing assay menus and workflow specifications that increased customer acquisition. I partner closely with RA/QA, engineering, R&D, and commercial teams to deliver compliant, revenue-generating product strategies.

I am results-driven and collaborative, with proven success in GTM strategy, global distribution integration, and regulatory workflow consulting for major institutions. I seek opportunities to lead cross-functional teams to achieve interoperability, optimize operations, and grow market share.
