“In my 14 years at Ligand, I've held several positions, from Controller to temporary CFO to part-time Director of Financial Planning and Analysis. Ligand promotes professional progress and work-life balance. I've worked on several exciting transactions, including OmniAb's spin-off & other acquisitions. My excellent coworkers have helped me improve professionally and I appreciate working with them. ”
