Renise Blythe’s story is one of divine resilience and boundless ambition. Born in Cap-Haitien, Haiti, and immigrating to the U.S. at just 8 years old, Renise has embraced life’s challenges with grace and determination. From humble beginnings, she built an extraordinary career, earning her Bachelor of Nursing degree from Widener University in 2003 and her Master of Nursing in 2010, before completing a Master of Public Health at Drexel University in 2023. Currently pursuing a PhD in Organizational Strategic Leadership and Biblical Studies, Renise exemplifies what it means to be a lifelong learner and a woman of unwavering purpose.
A powerhouse in both healthcare and ministry, Renise’s professional journey spans over two decades in nursing and pharmaceutical leadership. From critical care in hospitals to global safety governance in the pharmaceutical industry, she’s navigated roles like Senior Director at GSK Pharma and now serves as Vice President and Head of Global Drug Safety and Pharmacovigilance. Her expertise in FDA/ICH regulatory requirements and therapeutic areas like Oncology, Neuroscience, and Cardiovascular medicine has earned her numerous accolades, including the Critical Care Clinical Award and Pediatric Nurse Excellence Award.
But beyond the titles and accolades lies a servant’s heart. Renise’s faith journey is deeply rooted in her upbringing and personal relationship with Jesus Christ, which she accepted in 2007. Her ministry spans nearly two decades, from youth leadership and evangelism to international mission work, often returning to Haiti to give back to her community. In 2020, during the height of the pandemic, she launched “Becoming Her,” an online Bible study group designed to inspire women to embrace their God-given identities. Her life verse, Psalm 46:5—“God is within her; she will not fall”—is a powerful reminder of her mission to empower others through faith.
Renise’s passion for inspiring others extends beyond the pulpit. In 2013, she founded a Christian t-shirt line, creatively blending fashion and faith. This summer, she’s taking her voice to the airwaves with the launch of her highly anticipated Leftovers Podcast, where she’ll share her life’s stories, challenges, and victories to provoke change, ignite faith, and remind listeners that God’s timing is always perfect.
Married to the love of her life, Stephen Blythe, since 2019, Renise is a proud mother to their beautiful, blended family of five. Together, they embody a union built on faith, love, and a shared commitment to God’s work.
Renise Blythe is more than a leader; she’s a visionary.
