Our good friend Nadine ("Nerdine") Miller is a true "Renaissance person" with degrees from MIT and Oxford, she has shifted from engineering and mining to board work, which led to self-funding a tech startup. Her career included advanced soil mechanics work to design and close tailings facilities in mining, and now advisory roles on three mining boards.

Her new age tech startup "Nightingale" is a good example of "User Entrepreneurship", in which a challenge in monitoring aging family members while traveling, turned into an opportunity to build technology to help others facing similar problems. The technology uses millimeter radar to allow seniors to age or die in place, with the company headquarters moving to Florence, Texas.

We also discuss opportunities and challenges facing medical education and the supply of doctors, changes in international STEM graduate visas to favor retention of talent, and a future in-person High Octane Karaoke event. 

The High Octane Friends podcast is where Rob McMullan & Trevor McKee discuss a variety of subjects in an authentic and unvarnished way.
