I help life sciences organizations design, build, and govern compliant digital systems — faster and leaner than traditional approaches. With 25+ years across FDA, Health Canada, and EMA-regulated environments, I bring the strategic depth of a senior leader and the agility of a specialist, on demand, without the overhead.
What Sets Me Apart
I'm not a traditional QA or validation consultant. I bring a rare combination of software engineering, global compliance, and business domain expertise — which means I govern and validate systems by actually understanding them: the code, the database architecture, the cloud infrastructure, the AI/ML models. I assure from the inside out — not just the paperwork around it. The result: faster validation, smarter risk decisions, and findings that get resolved, not just documented.
🔍 Right-Sized Delivery: Define programs that balance validation rigor with business reality, across GxP and digital health domains. On time, on spec, and on budget.
🎯 Faster, Risk-Based Validation: CSA over traditional CSV. Eliminating documentation bloat and directing effort where patient and product risk actually lives.
🛠️ Engineering-Led Assurance: Grounded in software engineering, not just QA. I validate systems by understanding what's actually built: code, database, cloud, AI/ML. Faster decisions, smarter risk calls, real resolutions.
⚖️ Zero-Surprise Inspections: Data integrity controls and audit-ready systems built to withstand FDA, Health Canada, and EMA scrutiny. No last-minute remediation.
🧭 Strategic Roadmaps: IT, QA, and business aligned into executable plans, enabling compliant automation without organizational churn.
Large-scale implementations delivered with full traceability, controlled release, and audit readiness.
Resolved critical data integrity findings for organizations facing serious regulatory exposure.
Cut validation cycles 40–60% by shifting from document-heavy CSV to risk-based CSA.
Modernized regulated infrastructure to cloud — maintaining continuous compliance throughout.
Developed risk-based frameworks purpose-built for AI/ML, covering model risk, data integrity, and change control.
Guided SaMD products from concept through FDA and EU regulatory approval.
Facing a regulatory audit? Planning a digital transformation? Addressing validation backlogs or data integrity findings? Bringing SaMD to the US or EU market?
Available as a fractional consultant — senior expertise, on demand, without the overhead.
