WinnerBio
As an aspiring physician interested in surgery, I am drawn to specialties that demand precision and intricacy. I aim to merge my clinical experience with translational biomedical research to develop innovative solutions that exceed the current standard of care. Committed to lifelong learning, I strive to advance medical knowledge and improve patient outcomes. By collaborating with dedicated professionals, I seek to contribute meaningfully to the healthcare field by enhancing existing medical innovations, identifying new opportunities for progress, and addressing unmet needs within the community.
I am also currently working on launching my own biotech company/business called PhoeniXogen, where I will lead a biotechnology and healthcare innovation company dedicated to regenerative therapies, advanced medical technologies, and strategic management solutions. My role focuses on shaping the company’s vision, building partnerships, and driving the development of next-generation biotech tools designed to improve patient care and empower healthcare providers.
At PhoeniXogen, we aim to be a catalyst for healing by combining science, technology, and management expertise to bridge the gap between discovery and real-world impact.
