How long have you been at HIMSS?

I’ve been at HIMSS for three years.

How do you support our mission statement?

By working closely with everyone at the HIMSS APAC team to ensure that logistical and operational needs are met and to provide a conducive and enjoyable experience for all our stakeholders at any HIMSS event.

How do you know your work at HIMSS makes a difference?

Receiving feedback from our stakeholders at our events is very fulfilling. It means that we’ve engaged the audience, and it also lets us know where we’ve done well, what we can do better and what we can build on.

What’s one thing you wish everyone knew about the work you do at HIMSS?

There’s a lot of planning and time dedicated to every event to make it a success, no matter its size or platform – physical or virtual. It’s always a mix of emotion, where you’re excited and anxious at the same time, just before the doors open and the first participants join us. Then it’s all systems go!
