My vision is to improve the quality of life of patients with complex and serious conditions through a holistic patient-centric model where key stakeholders include patients and their representatives as full partners throughout the overall Drug Development and Lifecycle of drugs. I actively seek out and listen to the voice of patients, their representatives and advocacy organizations. I strongly believe that in the short term, co-creation will be accepted as a continuous daily practice within pharmaceutical industry. Ultimately, the patient-centric approach opens up more opportunities beyond the molecule and the results will be to deliver better treatment outcomes and the enrichment of patients lives. Partnering with patients is key for pharma success. I am eager and passionate to continue contributing for it! Eleven years of experience identifying, coordinating and seeking ways to collaborate with Key Opinion Leaders (KOLs) in the field of Rare Diseases (RDs). Experience in guiding and assisting the development of non - profit associations and related organizations for chronic diseases. Eleven years of experience in the pharmaceutical sector and business skills acquired through an MBA. MBA Thesis title: "Embracing orphan diseases: a bright pharmaceutical strategy". Two years¿ experience as a Medical Science Liaison in the field of derma-oncology. Four languages (Portuguese Mother tongue. Spanish Native or bilingual proficiency. English Full professional proficiency. French Professional working proficiency). Portuguese and Spanish nationality. Currently working as Head of Patient Advocacy in the field of Rare Diseases (RDs) for Europe and Rest of World (RoW) namely Australia, South Korea, Israel and so forth.
