Senior Director of Regulatory Affairs, Symrise, Inc.

“I love the smell of plumeria because the fragrance brings back memories of the pure, revitalizing beauty experienced in Hawaii.”

Working for the Symrise organization is an honor, and leading the amazing NA Scent & Care regulatory team is so gratifying. My responsibilities are both challenging and rewarding, and I would not want it any other way!
