We chat about his journey from a post-baccalaureate fellowship at a synthetic chemistry lab at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to his current position, and everything in between. Sam also shares how he honed his business acumen, the importance of proving out a skillset, and what the work environment is like at a pharmaceutical startup company.
