I started my career as a medical technician and technologist in French private laboratories for 7 years. Looking for new challenges I moved to the USA as a medical technologist and got the chance to work on all departments of a reference medical laboratory. I was offered the chance to work in R&D projects. I ended my experience there as the lab night shift manager.
I came back to France in 2000 and started working on the other side of the industry, for an In-Vitro-Diagnostic (IVD) designer and manufacturer, and have been working there ever since. Now Research Laboratory Manager, I enjoy working in a small team where everybody's qualities and assets can be expressed and considered, surrounded by skilled engineers and scientists, splitting my time between leading the activities of our R&D lab, directing the support of our customers and distributors and supporting our group technical teams after the launch of the products we developed.
