Preclinical & Translational Drug Development
Professional Direction
Focused on roles where science and strategy move together.
I am focused on roles where scientific communication, project coordination, and commercial strategy help move research programs forward. My experience has centered on preclinical CRO services, gene editing technologies, translational oncology, genetically engineered mouse and rat models, PDX model systems, and client-facing research support.
I am especially interested in opportunities connected to preclinical and translational drug development, clinical research support, pharmacogenomics, precision medicine, scientific partnerships, research operations, business development, alliance management, or technical program and project management.
Where I Add Value
01
Preclinical & Translational Research Support
Experience supporting scientific discussions and project development around oncology models, patient-derived xenografts, genetically engineered rodents, cell line engineering, toxicology, pharmacology, and translational research platforms.
02
Scientific Communication & Stakeholder Coordination
Comfortable translating complex technical capabilities into clear communication for scientists, commercial teams, external partners, clients, and internal leadership. Strong fit for roles that require careful follow-up, documentation, and cross-functional coordination.
03
Business Development & Partnership Strategy
Background in account development, strategic partnerships, proposal development, contract coordination, licensing discussions, market positioning, revenue forecasting, and pipeline management within biotech and preclinical research service organizations.
04
Gene Editing, Model Systems & Emerging Personalized Medicine
Experience with CRISPR/Cas9, Cas-CLOVER, piggyBac transposon technologies, transgenic model creation, cell line engineering, and preclinical model systems. Currently pursuing graduate study in Pharmacogenomics and Personalized Healthcare.
Scientific understanding. Clear communication. Careful execution.The combination that keeps complex research projects organized and moving forward.
Roles & Environments
Looking for full-time opportunities where I can contribute meaningfully.
- Preclinical or translational drug development
- Scientific project or program management
- Research operations or research administration
- Clinical research coordination or translational research support
- Business development or alliance management in biotech, pharma, CROs, or research services
- Scientific partnerships, vendor management, or research outsourcing
- Pharmacogenomics, genomic medicine, and personalized healthcare implementation
- Technical sales enablement, product strategy, or market development for scientific platforms
Selected Strengths
I am primarily focused on full-time professional opportunities, but I may also consider selective project-based or advisory work when there is a clear fit around preclinical research services, scientific communication, proposal support, partnership strategy, or gene editing and model system commercialization.
