I've had the pleasure of working with and learning from Raquel during our times at uni. She brought tremendous energy and passion to the projects we worked on. Moreover, her dedication and work ethic, perseverance to succeed and ability to find creative solutions to tough problems set her apart. In addition to considerable intellect, and exemplary performances, Raquel is a caring, engaging woman who teaches others by example, is inclusive, and consistently exhibits curiosity and motivation to learn. She is passionate about impacting the global community through healthcare innovation, and you can tell. A doctorate in the field of Regenerative Medicine and more recently the Medical Science Liaison certification. She comes prepared for all types of learning situations, having researched in-depth the relevant topics so that she can provide quality care as well as participate actively and meaningfully.
