Strategic Research And Consulting in Skin
STRAC is a word largely unknown outside of military circles but certainly, one I frequently used as a Cadet at West Point and beyond as an officer in the US Army.
It means “obsessively organized, perpetually prepared, and doggedly disciplined.” But it goes beyond that—it means doing the right thing always—with integrity and thoroughness.
These principles encompass the qualities I strive to bring to my work—clinical trials executed with precision, thoroughness, and integrity. These apply without exception to my consulting services as well.
When asked to provide expertise on cutaneous matters, whether one-on-one or in an advisory board setting, I will steadfastly bring all my energy, knowledge, and experience.
