After 41 years in the diagnostic and pharmaceutical industry, I have retired. I entered the industry as a technician at Cutter Laboratories plasma center in Oakland before moving to Bio-Rad Laboratories where I worked for 10 years in manufacturing and quality/regulatory. Cetus and Chiron were my next assignments for 12 years. With these biotech companies I had the privilege of being part of the Proleukin, Betaseron and Menjugate vaccine product approval and manufacturing operations.
In 2004 I began to provide quality and compliance service to start-up development companies, traveling the world working with contract manufacturers, laboratories and distribution depots for a wide range of new drug product.
I am extremely thankful for the good people with whom I worked across the US and around the world.
