"I joined Novalix in 2011 after a master degree in Organic Chemistry. I was part of the team that started the insourcing collaboration with Johnson & Johnson in Val-de-Reuil. Over the years I have seen Novalix grow to become the multisite and multidisciplinary company it is today and I’ve grown myself as well and had the opportunity to become project manager few years ago. What I appreciate in my daily job is team working with talented and involved colleagues on different client projects while developing Novalix technologies."
