With over two decades of experience working in a finance or accounting role, in the life science space, I have cultivated a diverse skill set and a deep understanding of various attributes, such as:

• Financial reporting and SEC compliance
• Complex M&A transactions as well as divestitures
• Managing working capital
• Complex accounting guidance
• Investor Relations
• Fundraising campaigns
• Audit Committee and BOD presentations
• Cost Cutting Initiatives
• Corporate income taxes
• Financial planning & analysis
• Financial reporting for equity compensation
• Credit and collections
• Assurance and audit services

Beginning my career as a financial analyst, I honed my analytical skills and gained invaluable insights, predominantly with SEC work early on. Progressing to roles of increasing responsibility including Controllership and VP of Finance roles. I've spearheaded strategic initiatives (such as ERP implementations), optimized financial processes (such as integration of M&A transactions), and led cross-functional global teams (such as other administrative and operational functions).

Having worked across the span of life sciences, specifically medical device, biotech and pharma, I've developed a nuanced understanding of market dynamics and regulatory frameworks. As a trusted advisor to executive teams, I've played a pivotal role in shaping business strategies (such as diversifying revenue strategies), executing mergers and acquisitions (several over the course of my career), and driving operational excellence (such as leading cross-functional teams).

Under my leadership at Bionik, I implemented cost-saving initiatives that resulted in a 20% reduction in operating expenses, driving significant bottom-line improvements. Additionally, I orchestrated successful fundraising efforts, securing $12 million in funding to fuel company expansion and other strategic initiatives. I have also been able to hire some of the brightest professionals as well as surround myself around expertise in the life science industry.

As I look ahead, I am eager to leverage my expertise and leadership acumen to drive financial strategies and operational excellence throughout an organization, where I can lead with vision and inspire teams to achieve transformative growth and sustainable success.
