About

I am a Biotech professional with 10+ years of experience spanning pharmaceutical quality, microbiology, and translational research across Australia, UK, and Asia. Currently a Specialist in Microbiology at CSL Behring, I deliver product sterility, method validation, method transfer, and risk assessments for biologics quality under strict cGMP environments. Over my career, I have delivered validated analytical methods for product release, driven CAPA and deviation management to meet regulatory standards, and coordinated change control processes ensuring global compliance. At the National Institute of Biotechnology, I led the Virology Unit, mentoring junior scientists and delivering projects that bridged academic research with applied biotech solutions. My foundation as a PhD-trained microbiologist equips me with deep scientific expertise, while my industry roles sharpened my skills in quality systems, cross-functional collaboration, and regulatory engagement. I bring both scientific rigor and operational excellence. I am passionate about ensuring the safety, quality, and reliability of biologics and vaccines, and I thrive in roles that combine scientific leadership, regulatory compliance, and continuous improvement. I am eager to contribute to advancing global biologics quality and supporting the delivery of life-saving therapies.
