About me
Hi, I’m Sian - a Global Medical Director who started out in a medical communications agency life about 20 years ago. My first gig was as a medical writer, and later I became an editorial director. Oh, and I’m an introvert! So, while I may not fit the typical corporate/Pharma success mould, I think that’s actually a strength.
​
Agency experience, in my (slightly biased) opinion, is an amazing launchpad for Pharma. I can write papers, I know compliance inside out, and pitching taught me how to dream up creative ideas at lightning speed. I’ve worked across countless therapy areas, upskilled myself fast, and picked up a broad range of skills beyond medical communications—like advanced video editing, social media planning, and even building websites.
​
And here’s the thing, I know I’m not the only one. If you’re here, you probably have some of these skills too, or maybe even more. Let’s own it!
