Which law would you most like to change?
I would most like to change the current state of patent laws, particularly in the realm of medical and pharmaceutical breakthroughs. I believe that life-saving treatments and medications should be accessible and affordable to all, regardless of their financial situation.

Who was your hero when you were growing up?
Growing up, my hero was my older sister. I saw her produce groundbreaking work in her own field, and her resilience in the face of many varied challenges inspired me then and continues to do so today. Every day I channel her spirit to develop my own passion for innovation and discovery in life and in the workplace.
