What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead lab operations and molecular diagnostics while strengthening QMS, accreditation readiness, and continuous quality improvement—driving reliable testing, efficient workflows, and strong team performance through data-driven KPIs.

I am a Medical Laboratory & Molecular Pathology professional with 15+ years of experience, including 5 years as Lab Manager. I specialize in molecular diagnostics and laboratory operations, and I bring strong academic grounding across MLT, Biochemistry, and Molecular Pathology.

In my Lab Manager role, I directed laboratory personnel and operations—optimizing workflows, managing scheduling and TAT oversight, and ensuring adherence to PHC, JCI, ISO, and AABB accreditation standards. I lead QMS documentation and continuous quality improvement, including SOP development, incident management, CAPA, CQI, and internal/external audits, while maintaining data integrity, equipment calibration/maintenance, and inventory control.

I also validate and implement novel assays/technologies and use KPI analysis to drive performance reporting, process optimization, and operational efficiency. Earlier as a Lab Technologist, I managed daily laboratory operations, supported accreditation compliance through SOP review and updates, performed blood product testing and microbiological analyses, and contributed to teaching and quality-improvement initiatives—building the leadership, discipline, and patient-care focus I bring to every team.
