Before being digital, the transformation must be human: H2H. This is exactly what I had in mind when I embarked in a journey to live and work in Atlanta, USA, some years ago. And when it comes to transforming people's lives, I believe technology to be a starting point for innovation. Throughout my career of over 15 years, I have always found the best opportunities in relationships. I have gained solid experience in the Brazilian and American Healthcare and Life Science industry, working with topics such as innovation, sales, digital strategy, business development, advocacy and public policies. And it was also through relationships that I have developed the leadership skills which allow me to find solutions to complex challenges, combining creativity, flexibility and careful analysis of the whole scenario. Currently as VP Head of Strategy, Operations & Partnerships for the Office of Digital Innovation at Johnson & Johnson's MedTech, I have the opportunity to promote true digital transformation in the largest healthcare company in the world. And by real transformation, one should go beyond technology itself. What is to be considered here is the real use people will make of it, and the potential to make them healthier, by expanding access to healthcare and providing quality care in further around the world. At Johnson & Johnson, I am committed to working with technology and innovation, believing that our actual commitment and responsibility is to the patients, doctors and nurses, about mothers and fathers and all the others who rely on our products and services.
