Science. Innovation. Leadership. Creativity.
Biomedical Scientist | Research Program Leader | Scientific Writer & Editor | Subject Matter Expert | Innovation & Creative Content
More than two decades of experience developing potential therapeutic candidates and translating complex scientific challenges into research programs, actionable strategies, technical content, and innovative solutions.
Introduction
I am a biomedical scientist and research program leader with more than 20 years of experience spanning biomedical research, biotechnology, drug discovery and development, medical countermeasures, scientific program management, and technical communication.
My work has brought together science, technology, program leadership, and communication to address complex challenges involving human health, national security, emerging threats, and innovation.
Today, I am expanding that experience into consulting, scientific and technical writing, AI-enabled workflows, educational content, and creative projects.

From Discovery to Impact
My career has involved moving between the laboratory, research program management, scientific communication, and strategic planning.
I have contributed to research involving recombinant proteins, nanoparticles, viral vectors, biomarkers, cancer biology, autoimmune and bleeding disorders, neurotoxic agents, and traumatic brain injury.
I have also contributed to the discovery and characterization of novel biological systems, development of biotechnology approaches, scientific publications, patents, and multidisciplinary research programs.
The common thread has always been the same:
Turn knowledge into meaningful action.
Publications, Patents & Research
My scientific career has resulted in peer-reviewed publications, patents, research discoveries, technical reports, and contributions to multidisciplinary research programs.
Books & Writing
Are we preparing the next generation for the world they will inherit?
Preparing the Next Generation explores science, education, leadership, mentorship, innovation, technology, parenting, career development, and our collective responsibility to help future generations live, learn, adapt, and thrive.
Creative Work
I also explore storytelling through music, video, visual communication, social media content, and digital creativity.
Using emerging technologies and AI-assisted creative tools, I am experimenting with new ways to transform ideas and stories into engaging experiences.
AI + Human
Artificial intelligence is changing how we conduct research, communicate information, create content, and solve problems.
I am particularly interested in the intersection of AI + Human expertise and how this combination can accelerate complex, knowledge-intensive work.
From “AI vs. Human” to “AI + Human.”
The future belongs to people who can combine technological capability with scientific judgment, creativity, critical thinking, ethics, and human understanding.
Let's Connect
I am interested in connecting with organizations, researchers, biotechnology and life-science companies, government programs, educators, innovators, entrepreneurs, and creative collaborators.
