Leading global health
across borders
Scroll
I’m an international business leader in life sciences. I’ve spent my career moving between commercial and operations leadership, across industries, geographies and therapeutic areas. That range shapes how I lead: I understand how a medicine reaches a patient end to end, from supply planning and market access to the conversation with a physician.
For as long as I can remember, I’ve been fascinated by the interconnectedness of everything: the world, the people in it, and our place within it.
Books like The Travels of a T-Shirt in the Global Economy and The World Is Flat shaped how I see things. They showed me how much becomes possible when people work together across borders, aware of their impact and committed to helping others.
That’s guided my career. I’ve chosen to work on products I believe in, ones that serve a real purpose and meet a real need. And I’ve learned that the problems worth solving are rarely simple. They ask us to question how things have always been done.
I think about that work in three ways:
I try to see the whole picture before acting on any one part of it. Every decision ripples outward, to patients, partners, teams and communities.
The Goal introduced me to the Theory of Constraints, and it’s stayed with me ever since. Whether the challenge is commercial or in the supply chain, I look for the one thing holding the system back, and start there.
In the end, it’s all about people. There’s nothing quite like working with a group of people toward something that matters. I love leading and being part of global teams, and the best results I’ve been part of have always been shared ones.
