About me
I am a seasoned clinical research professional based in Southern California, bringing over 15 years of experience in clinical research, including a decade directly involved with advanced oncology hematology clinical research.
I make research smoother, faster, and more connected by bridging the gap between data systems, people, and purpose.
Over nearly 15 years in clinical research, I’ve learned that progress depends as much on communication and structure as it doeson data itself. My work recently has focused on designing systems that help research teams collaborate across disciplines by aligning technical workflows, clinical processes, and regulatory standards to deliver clean, research-ready data that supports informed decision-making.
I bring both technical focus and human understand to every project. Accuracy and structure are essential, but so is the compassion that guides how we collect, interpret, and share information. Whether I’m refining a disease registry, validating new data models, or working with colleagues, I aim to keep the science precise and the purpose human. Each patient’s story deserves to be seen clearly and carried forward with care.
What I do
From understanding clinical trial protocol requirements, to developing action plans and tools to ensure all protocol items are documented and tracked throughout the study, I maintain strict attention to detail of all source documents to ensure I deliver clean data to sponsor and investigators for future publications.
Project Management
Effective project management is key to any successful clinical trial operation. While hematology trials are complex, I make it a point to ensure my protocol are audit-ready at all times and ensure all aspect of the trial are conducted as required to prevent protocol deviations.
data entry & abstraction
As an experienced professional data abstracter, I am able to lead data abstraction project planning, ensuring required data elements for research projects are captured efficiently and accurately categorized for down-stream analytics and use.
Protocol & Regulatory Compliance
Regulatory compliance is essential for ensuring protocols are conducted in accordance with applicable laws, guidelines, and ethical principles. After years in the regulatory compliance space, I'm well-versed in regulatory compliance and reporting requirements.
