Senior Consultant

Catherine joined MC Services as a consultant in 2019. She has 20 years of experience in business journalism and science communications. As a print journalist, she has covered the EU pharmaceutical sector and international news from Berlin, and national affairs and global business from New York.

Her work at MC Services allows her to combine this range of experience and use her skills to support innovative life science companies and their investors.

Catherine has a strong interest in helping European companies raise their international profiles, and in creating opportunities for them to demonstrate their expertise, develop their reputations and increase awareness of their innovative work.
