Keeping up to date with the latest technologies, as well has working with a lot of like-minded people who want to get things completed successfully.

What advice would you give to someone starting their career at CONMED?
The advice I would give anyone starting a career here with us would be, be yourself and don’t be afraid to ask for help or speak up. A new organization is a learning curve for anyone, but I am sure they will find it as enjoyable as I did when I first started mainly due to the people and culture.

What projects/accomplishments have you worked on during your time at CONMED?
During my time at Conmed I have been part of numerous projects, maybe too many to mention. But a few that standout are migrating In2Bones and Biorez onto the Conmed network, bringing up new sites in Australia and Spain and implementing wireless refreshes throughout the globe.

I am a keen traveler and like to visit various countries to learn about and see other cultures. I have a 20-month miniature Cockapoo dog who I like to get out and about with as much as possible. I am based in the beautiful city of Liverpool (Home of the Beatles) but I am original from Co. Armagh in Northern Ireland.
