Senior Project Manager
San Francisco Bay Area
· Directed 10 Oligonucleotides programs simultaneously from Pre-clinical process development to PhII clinical production under tight timeline and delivered final drug substance on schedule and within budget. · Instructed effective communication between internal stakeholders and early phase external collaborators such as academic institutions, CROs and vendors which contributed to satisfactory project completion with high quality product delivery. · Worked with Finance department closely to verify revenue reconciliation of each project milestone and accurate departmental forecast. · Guided 1 Operation Excellence project covering Quality Assurance, Quality Control, Manufacturing, Supply Chain, and Finance departments using Six Sigma mechanism to reduce GMP production deviations up to 80%. · Supported a multi-disciplinary team including Business Development, Quality Assurance, Operation, R&D and Facility, to establish a new GMP grade pipeline and expand production scale on Diagnostics products.

Project Manager
Bloomington, Indiana Area
· Administered 3 external projects in vaccine development from small scale formulation screening through Phase II Process Characterization, plus 1 commercialized drug product stability program by drafting project plans, generating Gantt Chart using MS Project, hosting client meetings and following up on action items to establish expected project progress. · Headed 3 US based inter-company projects on CMC drug substance development, developed project charter based on corporate business needs and defined pricing for each sub-study. · Led a team of 4 to ensure revenue Sarbanes-Oxley-Act compliance of 424 projects at Catalent with responsibility to create contracts, track projects progress and arrange shipping/delivery services of raw materials through ERP system JD Edwards.

Scientist Project Lead
Bloomington, Indiana Area
· Directed 2 mAb development programs including process development and technical transfer from 2 L lab scale to 500 L engineering scale production. · Presented weekly project updates in client meetings and addressed urgent problems during daily experiments, e.g. sudden cell death or pH instability. · Facilitated closure of urgent deviations under GMP compliance through proactive interaction with internal departments and presented root causes using fishbone diagram technique. · Negotiated with venders to verify adequate material supply for upcoming batch productions according to material planning. · Accomplished CMC related analytical method development as subject matter expert, including bioassays such as qPCR, ELISA, Octet and TECAN platform, LC based methods such as HPLCs, and characterization methods such as glycan analysis, SDS-PAGE, CE-SDS, and iCE · Established new methods of trace element impurity analysis using Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry to expand departmental capability, explore new business potentiality for quality control in small/large molecule Pharmaceuticals, resulting in a first-author publication and findings presented at Peptalk International Conference
