Laura Malagon on going from washing glassware in laboratories to VP Quality!

Laura Malagon on going from washing glassware in laboratories to VP Quality!

In today's episode I'm joined by Laura Malagon, VP Quality and Regulatory at Grand River Aseptic Manufacturing.

Laurie (as she is known as to those close to her) recently relocated from Miami to Michigan to lead the quality organisation at GRAM. She's had a fantastic journey in quality, starting her career washing glass-wear in a laboratory!

We talk about the following:

  • Relocating from Miami to Michigan this year for a new VP role.
  • Laurie's journey into science and quality.
  • Working with different modalities, therapeutics and organizations.
  • Laurie's love for quality and why she still has a passion for the industry.
  • How the industry has evolved since she started.
  • Communicating and leading cross-functionally.
  • Moving from established organization to start-up.
  • Laurie's hope for the future
  • Advice for quality professionals
  • The one person who inspired her the most.

Laurie's story should give inspiration to a lot of people in the early stages of their quality career that would like to progress into a Head of Quality one day.

She is kind, generous and incredibly passionate about leadership, quality and bringing safer medicines to patients. She's shown resilience throughout her career which has allowed her to widen her remit and grow her career. Her ambition to further her career shines throughout this conversation.

Thank you Laurie for sharing your incredible journey from washing glass-wear all of those years ago to where you are now!

Excited to see you continue to impact lives in your career.

Hope everyone enjoys the show!
