Leading digital design at Johnson & Johnson MedTech since 2020, I craft systems and experiences that support surgical teams and improve patient care globally.
My leadership philosophy is: Courage over comfort. Service before ambition.
I believe being an exceptional human – and role model – has tremendous impact on the people, teams, and communities we interact with, as well as shaping thoughtful and far-reaching experiences.
