Q1. Please provide us a brief bio of yourself and your health industry background.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a senior at La Jolla Country Day School, I am deeply engaged in our Design & Innovation program, where I focus on pioneering innovations. With aspirations of becoming a physician-scientist, I seize every opportunity to integrate meaningful innovation into my academic and extracurricular pursuits, aiming to blend scientific inquiry with practical application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q2. What motivated you to pursue this particular health initiative, and what impact has it had on individuals or communities?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the daughter of a first responder who treated COVID-19 patients daily, and as part of a household with three susceptible members to the disease, I designed a healthcare invention which facilitates skin contact-free glove removal, through a 3D-printed system powered by a foot-pedal mechanism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After about two years of dedicated iteration at the Design and Innovation Lab of La Jolla Country Day School (LJCDS) in San Diego, California, this functional prototype was developed. Following two successful design and prototype presentations, I secured funding to further refine and safeguard the design. Currently, the patent for the touchless glove remover is in the pending stage. I am collaborating with the La Jolla Institute for Immunology to enhance biosafety measures and aim for the eventual implementation of this innovative product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q3. Tell us more about your business\/company, your job profile, and the specific responsibilities you undertake?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am a high school senior at La Jolla Country Day School, and am the primary inventor of the Touchless Glove Remover. I invented, iterated, and developed the product. My mentor is Mr. Dan Lenzen, Director of Design & Innovation at La Jolla Country Day School.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q4. Can you share a specific story or testimonial that exemplifies the positive impact your project has had on an individual or community?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When the biosafety team at the La Jolla Institute for Immunology evaluated my product pitch and proposal for collaboration, the impact of my product was felt. I was provided feedback on how to prevent aerosol spread of germs and improve efficiency for practical application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This product is positioned to improve biosafety for healthcare workers globally. Please find details of this collaboration here:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
