As VP-Media at BioAge, I lead press outreach and public relations, manage social media, produce the company podcast, and generate and coordinate key internal and external communications.

In my 20 years as a biochemist and cell biologist, I focused on the biology of aging and cancer. After leaving academia, I worked for ten years as a scientific language editor, helping scholars around the world communicate my science more effectively. In 2021, I combined these two fields of expertise to become VP-Media at BioAge Labs, where I help craft the narrative of a clinical-stage biotech company that is developing drugs to extend healthy lifespan by targeting the mechanisms of aging.
