My Story
A former Physician Executive who has interviewed, hired and mentored physicians from Associate Director through Vice President. Practical guidance for every stage of the transition.
Physician Advisory for the Pharmaceutical Industry
Why Work With Me
Transitioning from clinical medicine to the pharmaceutical industry is more than finding the right job. It requires understanding a different culture, developing a different approach to leadership, and understanding how success is defined in an entirely new environment.
Having made that journey myself, I understand both the opportunities and the challenges. After nearly 2 decades in clinical practice, I entered the pharmaceutical industry in an entry-level physician role and progressed through increasing leadership responsibilities to ultimately lead multiple large scale clinical development programs in Vaccine R&D at Pfizer. Along the way, I interviewed physician candidates from Associate Director through Vice President and mentored physicians as they successfully transitioned into pharma and built their careers.
My goal is simple: to help physicians navigate the transition with confidence, avoid common pitfalls and build rewarding, long-term careers in the pharmaceutical industry.
