What I Do
From idea to asset… done properly
Early-stage drug discovery fails less from lack of science, and more from poor translation into executable plans.
I work with biotech companies, venture investors, and venture builders to:
Shape early assets into credible development strategies
Design and manage outsourced drug discovery programmes
Strengthen the link between scientific decisions and commercial value
The focus is simple:
Make early programmes investable, partnerable, and executable.
