I am a University of Houston alumnus (GO COOGS!), BS Biomedical Engineering '12 and MS Biomedical Engineering '14. In this time, I cultivated my passion for developing others and leadership. This, with my urge to be challenged, led me into industry.
In 2015, I joined Alcon, the global leader in eye care, at their Houston surgical manufacturing site. Here, I took on roles that built my knowledge in medical device manufacturing and leadership style - from engineering to supervisory roles. In 2018, I joined Alcon's RADAR program, a 6-8 year rotation program that will develop me across leadership roles in manufacturing. As of 2021, I am in my second rotation with global lifecycle management for the vision care portfolio. My intent with UH Women in Leadership is to share my failures as a young leader. Not as a cautionary tale, but as a reminder that it's unrealistic to succeed 100% of the time. Success more likely will come from failing often and growing fast. |
