As the Global Head of Business Development for Data-Revive, Barbara is responsible for driving business through identification of new markets, implementation of growth strategies, and the design of business processes. 


Barbara brings over 20 years of sales management and business development experience in biotech and pharma, health care, and regulatory and clinical services. From February 2021 to June 2022, she oversaw business development, client relations, and operations at DataRevive, a Validant Group company. She has negotiated and closed numerous complex transactions while leading sales teams at Fisher Scientific, Quorum Review IRB (an independent ethics review board), and NDA Group AB (a drug development consultancy for the U.S. and Europe). These results were driven by Barbara’s passion for building relationships with organizations to cultivate long-term growth.

Barbara’s sales expertise is complemented by scientific understanding from her previous career as an immunology researcher for both Immunex and Bristol-Myers Squibb. She holds a Bachelor of Science in microbiology from the University of Washington and an MBA from Seattle University.
