About the Speaker
Kirsten Messmer works for PPD, collecting and interpreting regulatory affairs intelligence for pharmaceutical product development. She has a Ph.D. in Neuroscience, along with Regulatory Affairs Certification. She joined Bull City Toastmasters in 2015, and served as Sergeant At Arms and President. Kirsten is also a member of Top Triangle Toastmasters, an advance club. Last year she was Area 71 Director, which required that she organize the area contests.
However, that’s not how her contest organizing experience started. It rather started with being dropped in the deep end as an assistant area director, while the current area director was on vacation, not returning until a few days before the contest.
Kirsten is an avid photographer.
