As a strategic life sciences leader with over 14 years of experience in oncology, immuno-oncology, and cell and gene therapy, I am passionate about advancing innovative therapies that improve patient outcomes. My journey in biotech has been defined by a hands-on approach to discovery research, product development, and regulatory strategy, taking concepts from the lab bench to clinical trials.

Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of leading and contributing to groundbreaking projects. At TC BioPharm, I played a pivotal role in the FDA approval of an allogeneic gamma delta T cell therapy and the preclinical development of next-generation CAR-T products. My expertise in developing complex assays and driving exploratory clinical analyses has been critical in achieving key milestones, including advancing a phase 2/3 AML clinical trial.

As a consultant, I leverage my experience to guide biotech companies in refining development strategies and bridging preclinical and clinical efforts. From conducting due diligence for investments to streamlining development pathways, I provide actionable insights that reduce timelines and costs while maintaining scientific and regulatory rigour.
Collaboration is at the heart of this effort. I thrive in cross-functional teams, ensuring seamless integration across R&D, clinical, regulatory, and manufacturing functions. I also enjoy mentoring, developing talent, and fostering team innovation and resilience.

I actively contribute to the scientific community, having presented at international conferences such as the Gamma Delta T Cell Therapies Summit and the Allogeneic Cell Therapies Summit. My academic foundation, with a PhD in Medicine from the University of Glasgow, further underpins my technical expertise and commitment to translating research into impactful therapies.

Joining this network aligns with my drive to connect with like-minded professionals with a vision for transforming healthcare. I am eager to contribute my knowledge, learn from peers, and explore opportunities for collaboration that can accelerate therapeutic development and benefit patients worldwide.
