About Me

Short Vita.

As a Medical Technician and subject-matter expert for Biotechnology, I could acquire my technical Know-how over 16 years in Research and Development in Microbiology, Protein Analysis, Immunology, Integrated Cancer Care and Molecular Biology in both, Pharma and Diagnostics divisions of Boehringer Mannheim/Roche with being familiar with all corresponding procedures, methods and technics.

After this I extended my management skills based on university degrees in Health Economics (BA) and Health Management (MaHM), as well as on different multinational and interdisciplinary leadership roles in line- and matrix- organizations, mainly in the area of Regulatory Affairs (RA) and Quality Management (QM) but in Interface Management with Business Development, Marketing, Finance, Clinical Affairs and Manufacturing in well-known Pharma and MedTech companies as well. In addition this included tools and instruments for personnel management and resource planning, but also effective and efficient communication across all hierarchy levels.

In 2023, after 20 years being responsible for global RA for IVDs (16 y) and drugs (4 y) covering RA strategy, registrations and submissions with authorities through market access in compliance with all regulatory requirements including QM, I decided to start my own consulting business to provide RAQ-Management Service.
