About

Throughout my education and career, I have developed unique skills that identify me as very committed, studious, passionate and hardworking student and employee. Innovation and creativity are two big motors in my life that integrate my interest in the application of technology for the improvement of health care. Based on the necessity of alternative solutions to address a problem, I believe my courses in Biomedical Mechanical Engineering have provided me the tools to find efficient solutions that will help others and make their lives better. Studying abroad has given me a greater understanding of the importance of working along with different perspectives to reach a common goal. I have learnt to work under pressure without compromising work quality and effectiveness. It has also challenged me personally and professionally, teaching me how to successfully overcome adversity. Furthermore, I believe that my skills in multitasking, excellent communication, organization, and mathematical reasoning, along with my abilities to work as a team member, position me as a strong candidate.
