Speaker

I am a Senior Manager in Downstream Process Development at Alvotech, with over 15 years of experience in the development, scale-up, and commercialization of biopharmaceutical processes. My expertise lies in downstream process development for biosimilar monoclonal antibodies, where I lead programs from early-stage development through process characterization, scale-up, technology transfer, validation, and commercial manufacturing readiness.

I am passionate about designing robust, scalable, and cost-effective purification processes that consistently meet product quality, regulatory, and manufacturing requirements. Throughout my career, I have successfully addressed complex process and product quality challenges while driving process optimization and implementation strategies that improve efficiency and reliability.I thrive in collaborative, cross-functional environments and work closely with teams across upstream process development, downstream development, analytical sciences, manufacturing, quality, and regulatory functions. My goal is to bridge scientific innovation with practical manufacturing solutions, enabling the successful delivery of high-quality biosimilar medicines to patients worldwide.
