Could you briefly introduce yourself and describe your role at LARVOL?

From a young age, I've been exposed to the medical field having been surrounded by illnesses and hospitalizations, sparking a lifelong fascination with medicine. While I was never drawn to becoming a doctor, my passion for drug research and data analysis guided my career path. At LARVOL, I serve as the Product Manager for LARVOL PULSE, where I stay abreast of the latest developments in cancer treatment and other drug therapies.

Every person's journey is unique. Can you share with us the story of how you landed in the field of oncology and at LARVOL specifically?

My journey into healthcare began with a profound interest in drug research, which eventually led me to analyze healthcare stocks at an equity research firm. In search of a more adaptable work environment, I explored remote opportunities and discovered LARVOL—a place that seemed tailor-made for my skills and interests.

What do you enjoy most about your role at LARVOL and how has it impacted your professional journey?

Being part of LARVOL’s diverse team is amazing! We have a respectful work environment where everyone brings their unique perspective to the table. It’s like working with a pack of high-performing tigers – we’re fast and on a mission. Nearly a decade of remote work have sharpened my ability to effectively communicate, honed my ability to read situations accurately and develop into a versatile professional. 

‍In an industry as fast-paced as ours, it's important to have strong motivation. What personally motivates you in your role at LARVOL, and how do you keep that motivation alive in the face of challenges?

The chance to delve into drug research is inherently motivating. The constant learning keeps me engaged and happy, like a daily dose of dopamine.  When faced with challenges, I focus on what I can control. Work itself is a form of therapy for me, allowing me to stay present and avoid getting overwhelmed.

At LARVOL, we know the importance of work-life balance. Outside of your professional role, what unique hobby or interest might surprise your colleagues at LARVOL?

Outside of work, one of my lesser-known skills is handwriting analysis. I have a knack of understanding people through the way they write, which often surprises those who know me professionally.
