Vision Scientist and Global Product Manager at ZEISS Vision Care with expertise in myopia management, spectacle lens innovation, clinical evidence, and product strategy. Experienced in leading cross-functional international projects from scientific concept through commercialization, translating research into impactful vision care solutions for eye care professionals and patients worldwide.

In my early days, my research focused on the mechanisms underlying ocular growth, refractive development, and visual regulation of myopia progression. Building on this foundation, I have contributed to the translation of scientific insights into practical optical interventions designed to slow myopia progression in children. A key aspect of my work has been bridging basic research and product development by supporting the design, evaluation, and optimization of novel myopia management strategies and spectacle lens technologies. I am involved in generating scientific evidence, developing clinical and commercial concepts, and helping bring research innovations into clinical practice.
