Accelerating the journey from Academic Discovery to Real-World Impact

In a landscape defined by shifting priorities, resource constraints, and evolving needs, we provide flexible, high-level expertise that helps you adapt, stay aligned, and continue advancing toward your goals.

Translating innovative research into clinical applications and market-ready products requires more than great science— it demands a steady anchor and strategic driver to propel projects forward in an ever-evolving environment.

Whether you're advancing a novel therapy, medical device, digital health tool, or institutional initiative, our support is tailored to meet your emergent needs—empowering you to move efficiently from concept to impact.

Strategic Support for Translational Research and Product Development

Our Areas of Expertise

Fractional Regulatory Affairs Support


Access the senior-level regulatory leadership you need, when you need it—without the burden of sourcing, onboarding, and maintaining a full-time position.


We provide hands-on leadership and support for engagements with regulatory bodies to keep your projects on track and aligned.


Clinical Translation Management


From preclinical proof-of-concept to early-phase trials, we help bridge the gap from bench to bedside.


We guide you through the clinical translation process with regulatory precision and operational insight, minimizing the potential for costly delays and optimizing your path to impact.

Research Operations & Administration

Inefficiencies in research operations and research administration slow progress.


We strengthen your internal infrastructure—optimizing workflows, minimizing bottlenecks, aligning teams, and streamlining study startup—so your research can move forward efficiently and effectively.

Compliance & Inspection Readiness


Stay inspection-ready and aligned with local, federal, and international regulatory requirements and standards.


Our proactive compliance support reduces regulatory risk, promotes reliable, audit-ready documentation, and positions your programs for long-term success.

A Message from Our Founder & Principal

"Regulatory, administrative, and operational barriers shouldn’t stand in the way of groundbreaking research and innovation—but too often, they do.


I founded Third Coast because I’ve seen firsthand how the right strategic guidance and hands-on support can mean all the difference between stalled progress and tangible, real-world impact.


I’ve dedicated my career to working alongside leading research institutions, healthcare systems, and life sciences innovators to transform research and product development hurdles into milestones for success. I know the challenges you face—because I’ve been in the trenches solving them.


At Third Coast, we don't just consult. We become part of your team— bringing deep experience, operational leadership, and tailored solutions to the table. Whether you're advancing drugs, devices, biologics, or other emerging medical products, tools, and technologies, we help you move forward with clarity, compliance, and efficiency.


Because when research moves forward, so does patient care, innovation, and the future of healthcare."
