After concluding her PhD in Bio-engineering, Ann wanted to explore new environments and chose the direction of regulatory affairs and quality assurance.
With the combination of a positive attitude and solution-oriented, analytical thinking, I try to achieve a job well done. I am good at grasping new concepts and bringing information together to create new ideas. These skills I use to convert the ever-changing regulatory requirements into practical guidelines within the company. To turn these requirements and new concepts to reality, I like to work in a structured and well-organized manner. My motto for improvement of a quality system and implementation of regulations is that it needs to stay practical. After this first experience I moved to a manager position which led me to further develop my management skills. This position exposed me more to the different departments within the company and has further convinced me of the fact that Regulatory Affairs is one piece of the puzzle that contributes to a successful business. After 4 years in a managerial position, I decided to start my own company, VR Projects, which allows me to help different companies getting grip on RA/QA.
