With over 25 years of work experience in the fields of nucleic acid analysis, oncology diagnostics, and genomics, I am a board member at two biotech companies: a proteomics startup and Burning Rock Biotech, a leader in precision oncology in China. I am also the founder and managing director of RS Technology Ventures, a strategic advisory and investment company that provides consulting and guidance to leading investment firms and emerging biotech companies. I have a Ph.D. in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, and I am a UCLA certified director with a corporate governance program certification. I am passionate about advancing the research and development of innovative and impactful solutions for human health and disease. I bring diverse perspectives and experiences to the board and the management teams, and I value collaboration, integrity, and excellence.
