Experience in the field

I got my start in the field as a bio/systems engineer at Tensentric in 2020, and then began as a full time biochemical engineer in 2021 after graduating.

What do you like about working at Tensentric?

I like working at Tensentric because it is a company of extremely talented engineers and individuals that are all driven by their desire to help others and provide medical solutions. I wanted to connect my engineering background with the medical field to be able to do impactful work that makes changes in people’s lives, and Tensentric allows me to do that in a unique way. At Tensentric, I am able to work on projects creating devices that address the unmet medical needs of people in this world, and that is what drives me in this career.

If you couldn’t be an Engineer, what would you be? And why?

Most likely a doctor due to the ability to have a direct impact on changing people’s lives!

What unique set of skills do you bring to Tensentric?

When I am faced with a question or problem, I am determined to answer it or find a solution. When developing novel medical devices there are many unknowns and my drive and determination prevents me from shying away from difficult tasks that are important in progressing the project. My eagerness to learn helps me grow with the company as we face new challenges every day.

Living in Colorado, I love to get outside and hike, spend time on the lake, and ski in the winter. I also really enjoy experimenting with cooking!
