Summary

I am a highly organized pharmaceutical scientist with a remarkable knowledge of research, development, and the applications of pharmaceutically active entities. I have a strong will to learn, hence I adapt quickly to new work environments. For about three years, I demonstrated my competencies in commercial and laboratory operations in developing and validating analytical techniques such as HPLC, GC-MS, and IR/UV. I am a self-starter and can work effectively across cross-functional teams while applying scientific knowledge, communication, and skills to achieve the best outcome.
