As a child, Patricia almost lost her sister to a medical error. She later on emigrated to the Netherlands to expand her view of the world and acquire further education.Her experiences of misdiagnosis, expatriation and womanhood in the workplace play significant roles in the kind of impact she aims to establish in her work today.
She has set a personal goal to impact issues of access and affordability to healthcare in different parts of the world through innovation. She has been committed to building her innovative concept ensuring that over 50% of her staff is female, so as to give women, especially mothers, even greater chances at fulfilling their career goals.
