Clinical Lead at IQVIA, improving clinical-trial delivery with tools for site activation and milestone tracking.

South Africa
Message

At IQVIA, I’ve worked across Project Management and Clinical Services, including serving as Program Centralized Monitoring Lead for three MEGA sister studies. I developed a tool that let the team refresh site activation data twice daily, supporting aggressive activation timelines.

I also developed a tool for bulk-uploading milestones to the Clinical Trial Management System, improving tracking accuracy and customer satisfaction while reducing manual data entry. As a Subject Matter Expert for a sponsor, I authored Project Instructions and Standard Operating Procedures.

Before moving into clinical research, I worked in genetics laboratories at the University of the Free State and Clinvet, contributing to research and developing laboratory processes. My experience includes global Phase I, II, and III studies across several therapeutic areas.
