I held leadership positions developing therapeutic biological products at Allergan, AnaptysBio, Becton Dickinson, and Catalent Biopharma Solutions. As a subject matter expert in Biologics CMC, I was often invited to teach training seminars in the international conferences (with rave review). I served as an executive director in CMC and Manufacturing at AnaptysBio in San Diego, successfully driving several therapeutic biological drugs from preclinical to late stage development. I have more than 25 years’ working experience in biologics drug development with a focus on CMC management, technical operations, and regulatory compliance. As a PhD biochemist by training, I use my extensive scientific and technical knowledge, leadership experience, and proven track record in CMC regulatory strategy to support drug development, manufacturing operations and control strategies for clinical trials and commercial use, ultimately assisting in getting more successful treatments to patients.
