She is currently a Non-Executive Director for Circassia Group plc where she is Chair of the Remuneration Committee. She is also on the Board of Morphosys AG (Audit & Risk Committee). Before taking these roles, she was VP, Global Marketing and Commercial Operations at AbbVie where she worked from 2012 to 2017.

"One area of focus for Clinigen over the past 12 months has been to bring new expertise onto the Board from industry and from other company boards. We are fortunate with Sharon that she has an equal measure of both. She has worked for multinational companies in the US and Europe, both in active executive positions as well as senior advisory on ethics and compliance, portfolio strategy and global crisis management. She has gone on to develop a broad portfolio of non-executive director roles with a variety of European companies.
