My background merges industry, consulting, and financial services, predominantly for innovative clinical diagnostic, life science, and therapeutic companies. These have been based on biotechnology, nanotechnology, and microfluidics, as well as novel biomarkers. This experience enables me to contribute highly as a consultant.

Most recently, I was Senior Vice President for Corporate Development at Agena Bioscience, which makes genetic testing equipment. For the clinical diagnostic and life science fields, I have also been a senior leader at Roche, Merck, Biosite, Siloam Bioscience, and Nanosphere.

In financial services, I was the group head for healthcare equity research, sell-side analyst, and a principal with William Blair & Company, an investment bank in Chicago.

For McKinsey & Company, I held manager and consultant positions.

I have an M.B.A. in finance and strategic policy from the University of Chicago, and a Bachelor of Science in chemistry from Duke University.
