About me

Longstanding experience with medical-scientific projects

I have obtained professional knowledge of market needs and regulatory processes over many years of experience in Medical Affairs/Scientific Affairs roles for diagnostics and pharmaceutical companies.

As a member of multinational teams and companies both in Germany and in the United States, I have acquired linguistic, social and cultural sensitivities.

Because continuing education is a matter close to my heart, I keep myself always up to date.
