Freelance Expert in Oncology, SARS-CoV-2, Orphan Drugs/Rare Diseases, Regulatory Intelligence, & Clinical Trial Design

Profile Summary

Biomedical professional with a multifaceted background in research in an academic setting, 5-years at the FDA in the Office of Orphan Products Development (OOPD), regulatory consulting, working in industry in regulatory affairs, intelligence, and research, as well as being actively involved in SARS-CoV-2 research. I have a PhD in Cancer Biology based on research I conducted in the Molecular Oncology Program at the Moffitt Cancer Center (also where I subsequently completed a 2-year postdoctoral fellowship in the Department of Experimental Therapeutics); was accepted into (and completed) the extremely competitive FDA Commissioner's Fellowship Program; reviewed over 100 orphan drug designation (ODD) requests and over 10 humanitarian use device (HUD) (and numerous amendments of each), served as the Scientific Review Administrator for the neuro-oncology review panel for the OOPD clinical grants program, and was the Project Manager for multiple grants funded through the program; spent time as a regulatory consultant as well as did medical writing; served as the Regulatory Intelligence & Research Lead for Shire; served as a Global Regulatory Team Lead for Rare Diseases at Sanofi; left science (formally) to open my own music studio; and finally was brought back into science via involvement with SARS-CoV-2. Through these experiences, I have gained a plethora of knowledge that has endowed me with the ability to effectively interrogate clinical trial designs regardless of disease state or condition or phase of study, how to effectively communicate with regulatory agencies, how to conduct intelligence on regulatory activities broadly or against competitors (and in the clinical trial space), write effective orphan drug designation or HUD requests, optimize research programs, write content, and multiple other functions. I look forward to seeing how I can help advance your needs.
