As a Commercial and Corporate Development Analyst at Protara Therapeutics, I contributed to the development and execution of business strategies for novel therapeutics in rare diseases and oncology. I conducted in-depth market research, competitive analysis, and financial modeling to identify and evaluate opportunities for licensing, partnering, and acquisition new products. My core competencies include AI for Healthcare, Med tech Instrumentation, Human centered product devlopment, Commercialization and G2M startegies.
