About

Life sciences leader with 25+ years in commercial strategy, market access, and HEOR. I apply a Pathfinder lens forged through my own real-world clinical challenge—an experience that reshaped how I approach evidence, risk, clarity, and decision-making.

I’ve built and led market access, HEOR, and commercialization strategies at global organizations including GSK, Lilly, Abbott Diabetes Care, and Otsuka, and I’ve helped scale growth-stage companies where execution actually matters.
