Welcome to my professional page. Here I summarize the different professional endeavors I have pursued and the professional projects I am planning to work on in the future. I've tried to organize my professional interests in order of importance, but this order is dynamic and may change over time.
a
Scientist, Molecular Genetics
I've worked on molecular genetics since 1991 and still consider myself first and foremost a scientist. I have a B.S. in Genetics and a Ph.D. also in Genetics. To this day reading scientific journals and keeping up with the latest advancements in a wide range of scientific disciplines is part of my life.
a
Quality Assurance professional

Ever since I started doing research I made sure that my work was performed following the most stringent quality standards. When I moved to the bitoech industry, it was no surprise that I became a natural QA professional. Now I have over 2 and a half years of QA experience in the biotechnology industry, with dozens of successful audits under my belt. I have experience with the following regulations: GLP, GMP, AABB, ISO 9001:17025, NYS DOH, and Texas DPS. I have also written hundreds of standard operating procedures (SOPs) and multiple qualification documents (IQ/OQ/PQ).

a
Business professional

After I finished my Ph.D. in Genetics I came to the conclusion that my scientific education had progressed as far as I could push it academically. As my career required more business knowledge, I pursued an M.B.A. in general business, which I finished in 2006. Now learning about business is one of my lifetime pursuits.

a
Entrepreneur

Between 2005 and 2006 I put together a new business for the company I was working for then. As a result of this experience I decided to go into business by myself. My first company, Mouse Genotype, was created in 2006. Now I can't help but spend time identifying new business opportunities and pursuing related ventures, including the founding of QA Assist in 2008 and Rat Genotype in 2010.

a
Fundraiser

Raising money for important causes is something that I have always been involved in. As my career continues to flourish, I try to at least partially show my gratitude by giving back to those that are not as lucky.
