My Story

I've had always had a passion for science. The complexities of the human body absolutely fascinate me. After studying neuroscience in college, I went to work for a biotech company and it was there that I fell in love with the intersection of science and business. I love analyzing biopharma strategy...everything from the early phases of clinical development to commercialization. Biotech keeps you humble, both as an investor and as a science enthusiast. New developments happen everyday in this field. As a result, my own personal Motley is... "Never Graduate!"

How I Invest

As once spoken by a respected biotech CEO...."Look for good, sound science first...the rest will follow." My investing has evolved though. Sound science is a crucial first step. Looking for companies with sound science AND sound commercial viability are keys to winning the long game in biopharma.
