  • Strong conceptual thinking and ability to connect abstract ideas into compelling narratives.
  • Deep understanding of social platforms (e.g., X / Twitter, Instagram, YouTube) and emerging cultural trends.
  • Experience navigating regulatory processes and medical / legal review (MLR).
  • Ability to quickly grasp complex medical and technical content and translate it into clear, engaging messaging.
