About
I believe that we succeed only if we place patients at the centre of everything we do.
I deeply understand the needs of patients, and use this insight to help save lives. I've worked successfully on both sides of the pharma equation: as healthcare provider, and as pharma executive working in commercial and medical roles.
I bring a strategic mindset to the table, and am able to prioritize and execute with limited resources. I'm able to roll up my sleeves and carry out tactical work needed to execute while simultaneously providing the strategic thinking necessary to fulfill a corporate vision.
My values enable me to grow, coach effectively, and drive results. I model authenticity, passion, and integrity. By modelling authenticity and approachability, I engage customers and employees to focus on a vision of improving patient outcomes. In my experience, great ideas come from a variety of sources. By being approachable and authentic, I maximize the value that individuals offer, and I spur them to act with more confidence.
I communicate passion for my work, and inspire others to greatness. I believe that as a healthcare provider, I used to care for patients one at a time. Now, as a corporate leader in biotech, I deliver on the promise of personalized medicine and care for patients on a broader scale. By valuing and modelling integrity, I motivate others to act ethically.
Together, we put the interests of patients and the organization first, and we generate value in an ethical and sustainable manner.
