Episode Discussion Summary

In this episode, Brandi shares how her passion for healthcare technology started before she even graduated high school and why her vision for making a difference hasn’t changed. We talk about:

• Starting with purpose – how her original goal of helping low-income patients led her to HTM.
• The mentors who shaped her – including lessons learned from calm, confident leadership.
• The evolution of HTM – bridging the gap between IT and biomed, and embracing AI as the next frontier.
• Breaking comfort zones – how attending her first AAMI Exchange became a masterclass in networking and connection.
• The power of representation – seeing 75+ women in leadership gather in one room and the ripple effect it has on the next generation.
• Leading with integrity – why honesty and accountability are non-negotiables in protecting patient safety.
• Next-gen outreach – the importance of intentional programs in schools to create a pipeline for future HTM professionals.

Brandi’s story reminds us that sometimes the most impactful leaders are the ones who start with a quiet determination and let their work do the talking.
