Clinical Research Professional | Patient Education Advocate

Clinical research professional with 15 years of experience dedicated to making clinical trials clearer and more accessible for patients and caregivers.

I believe patients deserve clear, honest information about clinical trials.

After more than 15 years working in clinical research, I’ve seen how confusing the process can feel for patients and families. Clinical trials involve complex procedures, unfamiliar terminology, and important decisions about health and treatment.

I created Clinical Trials Simplified to help patients and caregivers better understand how clinical trials work. My goal is to make complex research information clear, accessible, and easier to navigate.

Throughout my career, I have worked on clinical trials across pharmaceutical companies, clinical research organizations, and hospital-based research centers, such as:

  • Roche

  • UCB

  • Polpharma

  • Providence Saint John’s Cancer Center

  • Nobel Biocare

These roles gave me firsthand experience with how clinical trials are designed, conducted, and monitored—always with patient safety as the top priority.
