I feel strongly about developing an appreciation of MedTech’s interdisciplinary nature in women. My interest lies at the interface of technological advancements and biomedical research. I hope to develop sustainable healthcare solutions in the future and am pursuing this goal by studying Medical Sciences and Engineering.
When serving my Secondary School as Senior STEM, I established and published five editions of a STEM magazine with the support of a team I led. I also reached out to industry professionals for interviews to share their insights with students. From this role, I understand what an impact can be made when people share their experiences to inspire others. This is why events like the Women in MedTech conference really matter.
I loved attending the conference this year and would be honoured to coordinate this celebration of women and medical technology for 2024. In supporting the Chair of the conference, I would ensure securing speakers and panelists who work at the cutting edge of the industry and cover a breadth of expertise and backgrounds.
An idea I had to further the requirements of this role would be helping to organise smaller events to celebrate events like the International Day of Women and Girls in Science. Diversity in thought and lived experience is imperative to help medical technology find new approaches and address the interdependent needs of all. I hope that these experiences shared highlight my aptitude to be the next Women in MedTech Executive.
