With extensive experience in MedTech and healthcare advocacy, I am dedicated to enhancing healthcare through data-driven initiatives and effective governance to improve population health. Having been on various committees and boards, I am adept at devising strategies and delivering key organisational objectives. My background includes serving on various committees and boards, such as a past AIDH Board nominee and current member of the CHIA Examination Advisory Committee. Since joining RACMA, I have been active in College activities and currently serve on the RACMA Governance Committee. I bring a proven track record of successful collaborative efforts, integrating innovative, patient-centred solutions into healthcare systems. As RACMA addresses emerging healthcare and workforce challenges, my expertise in transparent and effective governance will be an asset. I am committed to advocating for our Members and advancing fair, inclusive policies that align with the evolving healthcare landscape. Together we will drive positive changes in our field!
