From pivoting toward general practice to operating in the grey zone between robotics and medical devices, her journey offers a grounded and honest look at the messy reality of healthcare innovation. She also reflects on the emotional toll of leadership in uncertain times and why finding mentors and taking things one step at a time might be the most underrated survival strategy in the valley of death.
