What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can apply GMP/ICH expertise to improve analytical methods, strengthen QMS, lead process improvements, and ensure compliant, timely product release.

I am a quality control expert with over five years of experience verifying product safety in GMP laboratories across pharmaceutical, mining, and government sectors.

I specialize in chromatographic and spectrometric techniques (HPLC, CE, LC-MS, ICP-OES, FAAS, ELISA) and have a strong record of method development, validation, and regulatory compliance to FDA/ICH/USP/BP standards.

I have driven process improvements through root cause analysis, CAPA management, SOP optimization, and QMS innovation, and I launched a QMS platform to enhance compliance and traceability for regulated industries.

I am known for precision, teamwork, and delivering timely, accurate results while maintaining rigorous documentation and safety-focused laboratory practices.
