In 2004 I started PFW Consulting, working with the smaller Biotech companies. I work with the sponsors in selection, contracting, and managing of their Outsourcing Partners as well as site budgets. This includes financial control, change order management, budget reconciliation, accruals, invoice review and budget forecasts. Prior to starting PFW Consulting, I worked over 16 years at Genentech negotiating a large number and variety of agreements. The last 11 years at Genentech were concentrated in clinical with a special emphasis on CRO and other Outsourcing contracts and processes. I have an undergraduate degree in Chemistry and a MBA in Finance.
