Chief Operating Officer | Business Operations & Product Workflow Development

Medical Microbiology · Scientific Research · Science × Technology

Bringing scientific rigor into business operations, project execution, and technology-product development.

I am the Chief Operating Officer at Quanizon, with more than seven years of combined professional experience in business operations, employee and project follow-up, workflow development, and operational reporting.

My background in clinical laboratory work, medical microbiology research, and scientific publishing strengthens how I analyze operational data, organize requirements, and support evidence-based improvement — not as a competing identity, but as a practical advantage in how I work.

My current professional priority is growing my role at Quanizon, while remaining open to selected scientific, research, and interdisciplinary collaborations.

Professional value

Executive Snapshot

  1. Chief Operating Officer at Quanizon, responsible for structured operational follow-up across multidisciplinary teams, concurrent projects, reporting, and workflow development.

  2. I connect day-to-day delivery visibility with clearer requirements, escalation paths, and evidence-based operational analysis.

  3. Scientific thinking — shaped by medical microbiology and research — is a practical advantage in how I observe, document, and improve operations.

  4. My priority remains growing the COO role at Quanizon, alongside selected collaborations that fit that responsibility.

Selected work

Selected Operations Work

  • Internal Operations Platform

    Flagship case study on the Case Studies page: I translate fragmented Excel workflows into platform requirements for attendance, performance, project effort, cost, and profitability — improving business visibility from analysis through reporting outcomes.

  • Cross-Functional Project Follow-Up

    I follow multidisciplinary contributors across engineering, design, and QA. My work centers on delivery visibility, requirement clarity, and surfacing operational blockers before release — not low-level task administration alone.

Flagship case study

Internal Operations Platform

From fragmented Excel processes to clearer operational and financial visibility: problem diagnosis, requirements, platform design input, and documented outcomes such as effort/revenue mismatch identification and stronger reporting across hours, attendance, and project costs.

How I Operate

These habits connect how I operate across teams and projects:

  1. Structured follow-up

    I use regular reports, working-hour records, task reviews, attendance data, and direct communication to understand what is happening across teams and projects.

  2. Evidence before assumptions

    My scientific background encourages me to verify information, compare records, identify inconsistencies, and avoid conclusions that are not supported by available evidence.

  3. Clear escalation paths

    I distinguish between operational recommendations, management decisions, technical decisions, and final approvals.

  4. Continuous improvement

    I treat workflows as systems that can be observed, documented, tested, and improved gradually.

Timeline

Career Journey

November 2025–Present

Chief Operating Officer

Quanizon

Operational follow-up across employees, projects, hours, attendance, performance, payroll data, expenses, payments, recruitment, and workflow development.

September 2021–November 2024

Microbiologist

Bedaya Laboratories

Managed assigned laboratory shifts, performed clinical microbiology procedures, conducted urine and stool cultures, completed antibiotic-susceptibility testing, followed quality procedures, and coordinated with physicians.

May 2020–August 2022

Microbiologist and Laboratory Operations Coordinator

Marvy Laboratory

Handled laboratory operations, payments, revenue records, inventory, patient concerns, physician coordination, and practical training for new employees and trainees.

Scientific foundation

Scientific Background

My career began in clinical laboratory environments, where precision, documentation, sample integrity, quality procedures, and timely decisions directly affected the reliability of results.

That foundation continues to shape how I work in operations: accurate records, evidence before assumptions, and structured improvement.

Master’s research

Medical Microbiology Research

My master’s research examined soil-derived actinomycetes as potential sources of antimicrobial metabolites. I isolated and screened twenty actinomycete isolates and contributed as second author to two scientific publications in 2025.

Research Highlight

Antimicrobial activity from soil-derived actinomycetes

My master’s research involved collecting agricultural soil samples, isolating actinomycetes, screening their antimicrobial activity, selecting promising isolates, and optimizing production conditions.

One isolate was identified as Streptomyces rochei ASN and deposited in GenBank under accession number PQ673648.
