Coming from a non-traditional background in International Business, I began my journey into Data Science and Machine Learning as a self-taught learner, driven by curiosity and a desire to solve real-world problems. Over time, my interest evolved into a clear mission: to apply technology in a way that creates tangible impact in healthcare.

My journey into tech started outside of the traditional path, but led me straight into the intersection of healthcare and data. Now as a Master’s student in Smart Medicine and Health Informatics at National Taiwan University, I’m focused on Biomedical Informatics - designing technologies that are not only intelligent, but also meaningful in real-world clinical settings.

I'm passionate about building solutions where clinical insight meets technical precision, and where ethical, explainable AI plays a critical role. I believe the future of healthcare isn’t just smart - it’s also transparent, human-centered, and inclusive.

As a busy mom of four, Cara brings a grounded, real-world perspective to the stage. She speaks on leadership, enablement, spirituality, gentle parenting, and raising self-aware, resilient kids, meeting audiences where they are and helping them grow with intention.
