Profile Summary

I am a highly analytical and forward-thinking professional with a passion for genetic research and its impact on medicine and health technologies. My expertise lies in developing, implementing, and deploying innovative genetic solutions to improve human health outcomes. My goal is to make a positive impact on a global scale by delivering sustainable solutions in healthcare. With a solid background in data analysis, research methods, and human genetics from top institutions and universities, I excel in managing large-scale genetics projects, conducting research, and presenting findings to both technical and non-technical audiences. My skills in analyzing large datasets, writing research proposals, and designing and executing studies make me an asset to any team. I am well-versed in the regulatory requirements and processes related to medical devices, ensuring that projects are executed in a compliant and efficient manner. I am committed to excellence in establishing productive collaborations in both basic and applied research and always strive to push the boundaries of what is possible. Over the years, I have been instrumental in delivering genetic counseling services to 80+ individuals receiving preventive DTC genetic testing while offering personalized information and advice regarding heritable diseases. I delivered genetics-related technical support to lay professionals to effectively understand and assess humans’ genes. Leveraging advanced knowledge of biological/medical science and effective communication skills, I designed 70+ social media pages to spread scientific information about 22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome and Beckwith-Wiedeman Syndrome. As a project member, I administered a wide range of research project proposals that covered two international projects while coordinating with INSA in Lisbon, Portugal, with Coimbra Hospital and University Center in Coimbra, Portugal. Below listed are some of my skills that can prove beneficial for other companies: Research & Data Analysis, | Genetic Counseling | Medicine & Health Technology | Project Management | Technical Protocol Contact me at xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx to learn more about my experience and how I can help drive success in your next project.
