"Having been born and raised in a very rural part of the United States, I really wasn't exposed to a diverse and inclusive environment until I attended college and then began doing my internships in engineering. Once I got the chance to experience working side by side with people from other parts of the world, I truly experienced the importance of inclusivity in the workplace. Now, I promote an inclusive environment by being a part of the hiring and interviewing panels for open positions and represent the diversity committee on these panels. Within my current team, I embrace all of our different backgrounds, experiences and educations to help make the success of our projects much better."

"With my current team of researchers, I feel proud that we are such a cohesive unit and I really feel that this cohesiveness comes from our diverse and unique backgrounds. We all bring our areas of expertise and this expertise comes from our difference in backgrounds. My openness to working with any person, no matter their cultural differences, has really helped me personally and the work that I do. In applying for this position, I was very pleased to see GE Healthcare's stance on inclusion in the workplace and I'd love to be a part of the diverse team here."
