Bio
My experience within both the hospital and industry setting has developed my interest in emphasising the user-centered and human factors design of medical technologies to ensure accessibility and usability in all areas around the world. My skills are broadly in problem definition, upstream product development, and implementation of medical technologies (device and digital health) in the clinical setting. I am focused on ensuring Starling prioritises the user experience throughout our growth.
