This included: assuring the scientific validity and accuracy of the Soza Health System (SHS) for the early detection of health and performance status, as well as ongoing refinement and optimisation of the SHS performance as the dataset of test results expanded. I led research and development of new and existing Soza Health products, and development of automated, tailored, diet and lifestyle interventions, which were specific to a customer’s test results. These were designed to be available in a personalised report during an hourly consultation. I also wrote and created content for the Soza Health blog and customer portal. I was instrumental to the expansion of Soza Health internationally, with clinics in the UK, South Africa and Canada and development talks for expansion into the US, Europe, The Middle East, India and East Asia. A vital part of my role was to secure deals with various corporates to provide health screening to their employees and to develop partnerships with private healthcare companies, so that the SHS can be offered within their product portfolio. An additional part of this international expansion was to determine international regulations for health and wellness products, and to ensure that Soza Health complied with government directives in each country of operation.
