01 / SCIENCE
Scientific fluency
Neuroscience, human biology, anatomy, physiology, disease, and health concepts are familiar working territory — not vocabulary I am meeting for the first time.
Pharmaceutical • Neuroscience • Healthcare Sales
Science fluency.
Human connection.
I’m a Queens-based science communicator and entrepreneur bringing a B.A. in Cell Biology & Neuroscience, graduate training in education, three years of audience-facing science communication, and hands-on business-development experience to territory-based healthcare sales.
Commercial Value
A technical story, translated clearly.
I do not claim prior pharmaceutical-sales experience. I bring the adjacent skills that matter: scientific credibility, audience adaptation, relationship development, disciplined follow-through, and the ability to learn complex material quickly and explain it accurately.
02 / MESSAGE
Adaptive communication
Years of adjusting technical explanations in real time for honors, general, multilingual, and struggling learners translate directly to audience-specific messaging.
03 / RELATIONSHIPS
Rapport & stakeholder engagement
Teaching and entrepreneurship both reward listening, trust, responsiveness, and understanding what matters to the person in front of you.
04 / OWNERSHIP
Business-development mindset
Building an independent venture required outreach, follow-up, regulatory planning, deadlines, pricing, research, and decisions without waiting for someone else to move first.
Core Competencies
Built for scientific selling.
A blend of technical understanding, communication, business development, and execution.

Experience
Communication, ownership, execution.
My background combines scientific presentation experience with direct founder-level responsibility for business outreach and planning.
2026–Present
Founder / Business Development
K-Crunchies — Independent Venture, Queens, New York
Developed the venture from concept through brand and website launch; researched pricing and unit economics; conducted outreach to host locations and community partners; tailored value propositions and follow-up; and managed licensing, food-safety, and compliance planning across multiple workstreams.
2025–2026
Science Teacher, Grade 7
I.S. 61 Leonardo Da Vinci Intermediate School — New York City
Delivered complex scientific content to honors, general-education, and multilingual/ELL audiences, adapting messaging and engagement strategies while partnering with coaches, administrators, and colleagues around performance and outcomes.
2023–2025
Science Educator — Anatomy & Physiology / Biology
Flushing High School — New York City
Built and launched a new Anatomy & Physiology course for an emerging medical track, taught biology, and used feedback and performance data to adjust explanations, materials, and instructional strategy.
Territory Fit
How I would approach the work.
My founder experience sharpened the habits I would bring into a territory: preparation before outreach, tailoring the message, documenting follow-up, learning from response patterns, and staying compliant while moving opportunities forward.
Listen → tailor → follow through.
I am comfortable changing the depth, framing, and language of a technical explanation without changing its accuracy. That same discipline applies to understanding stakeholder needs and making every interaction useful.
Own the pipeline.
Independent business development taught me to build lead lists, initiate contact, keep track of responses, research constraints, and continue the work even when the answer is “not yet.”
Education
Science first. Communication on top.
A technical undergraduate foundation reinforced by graduate training in how people learn, process, and retain complex information.
