BGAbout Bree
A career biotechnologist with a passion for bridging science and operations, I thrive at the intersection of lab innovation, external manufacturing, and digital optimization. Over the past 9 years at Moderna, I've led projects ranging from supplier qualification and DNA operations to lab management and cross-functional collaboration, always with a focus on improving efficiency and enabling science to move faster.
With a strong foundation in molecular biology, a Master's degree in Biotechnology, and over 15 years in industry, I bring both hands-on scientific expertise and strategic operational experience to every engagement. My goal: to help organizations unlock their full potential by making their science run smarter, faster, and better.
