What I'm looking for

I’m looking to pivot into life sciences consulting in an international, technology-enabled environment—using my PhD-driven analytical background and customer-facing expertise to turn complex science into practical, structured, data-driven recommendations.

I’m a PhD-trained life sciences professional with experience across academia and a high-growth life sciences startup, where I translate complex scientific and technical challenges into structured, data-driven solutions. In my current role, I support the development and quality control of a life sciences technology platform, acting as a technical interface between R&D, product teams, and customers to turn requirements into scalable workflows.

I’ve also led interdisciplinary methods-development work at the Max Planck Institute for Biochemistry, developing multiplexed spatial omics strategies for quantitative single-molecule imaging and generating analyzable, reproducible outputs. I communicate technical concepts to diverse audiences, provide customer-facing technical support and training (onboarding and troubleshooting), and bring user feedback back into continuous product improvement. I’m now seeking to pivot into life sciences consulting within an international, technology-enabled environment.
