SUMMARY: A well-rounded engineer with over ten (10) years of experience in validation, quality systems and Research and Development. Major strengths reside in equipment and control systems qualification (IQ, OQ & PQ), process design and development, process validation, project management, process troubleshooting, and quality system management for compliance to cGMP and ISO 9000 requirements. I am also a prolific writer & expert reviewer, with more than twenty (20) self-published books.
