Testimony

After completing my lab work at IMM, I decided to follow two of my secondary passions besides Molecular Biology: films and airlines. As such, I got a role as cabin crew based in Bologna (IT) and later enrolled in a Film studies degree at Eicar in Paris (IT), which I combined, with an account management role at Thermo Fisher Scientific. Four years later, I had thr chance to join one of the most awarded unicorn’s startup HQ’ed in Lausanne (CH) and to lead the commercial deployment in Portugal and Western Spain. More recently, 5 years ago I joined the larket leader in Precision Medicine – Illumina – where i hold a senior clinical account mgmt position.

The most important takeaways from my time @ IMM were: teamwork and independent thinking. I also greatly valued being given responsibilities.

I joined ILMN 5 years ago first as a teneralist TAM and 2 years ago as specialist in clinical applications.
