Therapeutics,
Inc.
(through
SimulStat, Inc.)
Biostatistical
Consultant, 2017-present
|
Provide
statistical consultation at all levels for 8 clinical trials for
client developing Hepatitis C and kidney disease therapies. Assist
with protocol development, study initiation, study simulation
(including Bayesian methods), data management (including
standardization of data per CDISC), review of SAP and TLFs,

Agility
Clinical, Inc.
Manager,
Biostatistics, 2013-2015
|
Promoted
from Biostatistician I to Manager within 9 months. Involved in all
levels of statistical and programming support for award-winning
CRO, including project management for external and internal
stakeholders. Main statistician for ad
hoc
project work due to skill set (education and industry experience).
Worked independently from project initiation (SAP development)
through project completion (data deliverables and summary
reports). Expertise in entire data programming process from raw
data through creation of SDTM and ADaM datasets per CDISC.

Althea
Technologies, Inc.
Supervisor,
QC Stability, 2008-2013
|
Lead
team of HPLC analysts within department that generated over USD 1
million annually in revenue. Responsible for design of hundreds of
analytical method validation protocols for products at various
stages of clinical development and assay development. Formalized
method transfer and qualification procedure, including sample size
calculations, testing for equivalence and mixed modeling
procedures for variance components analysis. Utilized discrete
(Poisson, negative binomial) and continuous models in the analysis
of microbiological and particulate data to set action and alert
limits for manufacturing process controls. Collaborated with
analytical and product development group to institute study
designs based on DOE principles for process optimization and
analytical method robustness evaluation.
