Passionate about improving healthcare outcomes through innovative digital solutions and medical devices, I bring a wealth of expertise in clinical research and project coordination, particularly focused on infectious and chronic diseases, psoriasis, and oncology. Currently serving as a Senior Clinical Research Associate and Research Project Coordinator at iHealth labs, I have been instrumental in spearheading impactful initiatives, notably in the realm of COVID-19 testing. My role involves leading trials for COVID-19 home test kits and COVID-19 & FluA/B detection home test kits, collaborating closely with renowned experts from NIH and FDA, including the ITAP and RADx programs. Guided by their insights, I have contributed to the development and optimization of home test kits, navigating regulatory pathways such as 510(k) and POC product evaluations. Currently, I'm spearheading the protocol development, trial design, and site selection for a CGM trial, leveraging my expertise to drive impactful results in this innovative project. My prior experience at Mindera Health involved managing Psoriasis Clinical Studies, where I ensured adherence to rigorous regulatory standards including FDA, CLIA, CDPH, and CAP. Upholding these standards while maintaining a focus on quality has always been paramount in my approach. As a dedicated professional, I thrive on continuous learning and growth, consistently seeking opportunities to expand my skill set and contribute meaningfully to my team's success. I firmly believe that trust, reliability, and enthusiasm are the cornerstones of effective collaboration and organizational growth. In addition to my clinical research expertise, I possess a strong background in microbiology and biotechnology, holding a Bachelor of Science and dual Master of Science degrees in Microbiology and Biotechnology. With over eight years of academic microbiology and molecular laboratory experience, complemented by three years of clinical experience, I offer a unique blend of theoretical knowledge and practical proficiency in my field.
