‘red līn

  1. The highest safe operating limit (in RPM) of an automobile engine. Often the greatest horsepower of an engine is achieved at or near its redline.

  2. The Washington, DC Metro Red Line, serving Maryland’s Biotechnology Corridor (Interstate 270) where I started my career.

  3. To mark up a contract identifying areas for further negotiation.

  4. Advanced therapy’s high-output board and investment advisory!

Who I Am: As a car fanatic, scientist and aspiring engineer, I’ve always been fascinated by all things mechanical…especially performance cars. To me, the word redline is synonymous with pushing technology to the limit.

I’m intrigued by the means whereby technologies, individuals, and teams synergize to create something much more powerful. I apply systems and design thinking in my strategic process to build high performance strategies, brands, and teams. A deep understanding of biochemistry and molecular biology - combined with a wide ranging network of creators, inventors, investors, and practitioners - gives me the unique perspective to assess and capitalize on emerging biotechnology opportunities.

I have 30+ years of biotechnology strategic marketing, technology development, market & business development, business management, and board experience, ranging from the smallest start-ups to some of the largest life sciences and investment organizations.

How I work: I am an independent advisor passionate about brand building, story-telling, innovation, investing, mentoring, board governance, and company creation. I engage in a very limited number of opportunities that inspire me, committing my time and energy to making a difference to those causes that can change lives.
