About Me
I am currently employed as a senior scientist at Amgen Inc., where my primary focus lies in designing and conducting studies aimed at advancing the development of manufacturing processes for therapeutic drug products. In this crucial role, I am responsible for devising innovative approaches and implementing comprehensive research strategies to optimize the production of life-saving medications.
​
Before joining Amgen, I embarked on an academic journey that involved pursuing a Ph.D. and undergoing postdoctoral training. During this formative period, my research efforts were dedicated to the development of disease diagnostic devices specifically tailored for use in low-resource areas or the convenience of home settings.
