Malachi Wickman, M.S.

Malachi joined Dark Horse Consulting in 2021, bringing experience in the Biotechnology industry, primarily focused on raw material supply and project management for cell therapy research and clinical trials.

In working on DHC projects, Malachi finds that her project management lens provides utility for a range of CGT manufacturing and development clients. Her commonly requested projects vary from helping clients enhance and streamline their operations to developing regulatory submissions to monitoring manufacturing at a CDMO, and to identifying whether a facility build-out is on track…and if not, how to remediate the situation.

Malachi spent her years prior to joining Dark Horse Consulting as a member of the Cell and Gene Therapy Solutions team at the American Red Cross. During her time there, she advanced to be a Director of Client Relationship Management, overseeing raw material supply for and management of 10+ clients in the allogeneic cell and gene therapy industry in both research and clinical trial stages. Malachi aided the product development and healthy donor apheresis program growth as a result of both her work with clients and internal collaboration. As part of her role at the Red Cross, Malachi functioned as a project manager for custom client requests to expand the client offering and to better serve the C&GT Industry.

Prior to entering the field of cell and gene, Malachi was a product specialist for a chemistry instrumentation company where she worked with many different industries and was trained in instrumentation installment to 21 CFR Part 11 Compliance. Additionally, Malachi both studied and worked as a chemist interested in medical and biological applications.
