About Me
I am a clinician scientist with over a decade of clinical, regulatory, and research experience in hospitals, health centres, and regulatory agencies.
I completed my residency in Preventive Medicine with a focus on health policy, regulatory science and pharmaco-economics. In addition to my clinical practice, I have regulatory experience at HSA and CoRE (Duke-NUS), and now I am putting my public health knowledge to good work as a regional medical lead in Takeda Vaccines.
I also have a strong scientific and research track record with published white papers and studies across topics including advanced therapy and precision medicine, regulatory capacity, digital health, and health product e-commerce. Finally, I am currently undertaking an MBA to round out my experience.
