QC Chemist | Food Quality Control

I am a chemist with hands-on experience in accredited food testing laboratories and industrial quality control environments. I have developed strong expertise in chromatographic and spectroscopic techniques such as HPLC, GC, UV-Vis, and IC, alongside a solid understanding of quality systems and laboratory data management. My work experience spans managing high-volume daily testing across multiple product categories and production stages, ensuring compliance with quality standards and regulatory requirements.

Throughout my career, I have contributed to process improvements that enhance sample homogeneity and testing consistency, and I have actively participated in inter-laboratory proficiency testing with successful results. I am skilled in deviation records management, root cause analysis, calibration, and HACCP compliance, working effectively within multidisciplinary teams.

I have also gained experience in GMP-regulated pharmaceutical environments, focusing on production planning, packaging procurement, and stock management. I have built and implemented dashboards using Excel and Tableau to support operational decision-making and performance monitoring.

My educational background includes a Master’s Degree in Chemical Sciences and a Bachelor’s Degree in Chemistry from the University of Naples “Federico II”, where I graduated with high marks. I am fluent in Italian and English, with a working knowledge of French.

I am proficient with various laboratory software such as Chromeleon, LabSolutions, OMNIC, and eLIMS, and business systems including SAP, Tableau, Celonis, and Decisyon. I am committed to maintaining high standards of laboratory practice and contributing to continuous quality improvement in food and pharmaceutical industries.
