You didn’t start your brand to have to figure out regulatory requirements.
You started it to pursue your passion and
share your impact with the world.
With almost 20 years of regulatory experience in the beauty, personal care, consumer healthcare and dietary supplement industries and backed by a master’s degree and a doctorate in Regulatory Science from the University of Southern California, I am passionate about advocating on the behalf of the beauty industry. Starting Vogue Regulatory in 2020 gave me the opportunity to pursue my mission of helping brand founders bring innovative products to the market while also ensuring compliance, no matter the size of the brand. I like to say regulatory is the lawyer I was always meant to be except it is more dynamic and fun!
