Research Assistant
Johns Hopkins University, Wilmer Eye Institute - Baltimore, MD
I worked on two research studies. One was to evaluate a virtual bioptic telescope for low vision patients. The study was to see if a new type of head mounted video magnification system could improve the ability of low vision patients to perform their daily activities. The other was a qualitative survey for patients and doctors to complete. We were evaluating the acceptance of virtual telehealth care in a low vision patient population.

Project Manager / CRC
International Research Center - Towson, MD
I was hired as a Senior Clinical Research Coordinator, and promoted to Project Manager after one year. I was responsible for the coordination of several trials; phase I-IV in the areas of Psychiatry (Schizophrenia & Bipolar Disorder in adults and adolescents), Neurology (Alzheimer’s & Dementia), as well as two trials for Hypertension and one for Osteoarthritis of the knee. As a coordinator I performed all required study related procedures beginning with site selection, to the initiation visit, to the visit-to-visit care of each patient/volunteer (consenting, obtaining medical histories, phlebotomy, etc.), and finally trial closeout, which included post query resolution. As a Project Manager, I supervised, educated and followed up with staff on compliance, regulatory and quality assurance directives. My principal focus was quality data management. I set the precedent for internal audits (performing random inspections of charts, drug, etc.) of all staff coordinating trials, and I was lead contact for sponsor-related audits, as well as those conducted by the FDA. I managed a newly opened clinical research unit for 5 months prior to my departure. I exceeded my goals and achieved a high level of quality as demonstrated by my strong organizational skills and my yearly evaluations.

Senior Clinical Research Coordinator
Innovative Medical Research / an Advance PCS Company - Towson, MD
I began my employment as a Clinical Research Coordinator and was promoted to Senior Coordinator after 16 months. My primary focus was supervising multiple trials for Hypertension, Diabetes (Neuropathy), Mild Cognitive Impairment, Headache (Menstrual, Tension & Migraine), and Vaccine Research. I fulfilled all the roles and responsibilities required by a CRC, beginning with the site initiation visit, to the visit-to-visit care of each patient/volunteer (consenting, obtaining medical histories, phlebotomy, etc.), and finally the closeout visit, which included post query resolution. I was the primary contact for all in-house audits conducted by the sponsor and those initiated by the FDA. We had a call center that performed recruitment. However, after this area of the company was closed, I created and edited recruitment scripts. In addition, I performed in-house monitoring prior to the CRA visiting the site. I was responsible for training new staff, which resulted in my developing a time management tool to track employee performance. I traveled to most investigator meetings to allow me to fully educate and train staff on all aspects of each study. IMR closed its offices, and I was asked to stay on board to manage site activities, which included seeing the remaining patients/volunteer for their visits. I was also responsible for archiving all past/current study documents (CRFs, regulatory documents, etc.) for greater than 100 studies.
