In this interview Linda answers our questions on a range of topics including product design, FDA regulations for medical devices, and the experience of running her own company. I trained in Brooklyn, New York. We didn't always have what we needed, so we learned to improvise. That's one thing.
Nurses have to solve problems all the time.
I think we're trained in problem solving. I think, too, that certain types of people become nurses, and one of the qualities nurses have is that they know how to solve problems. I've had the opportunity to speak nationally at nursing conferences about my experiences as a nurse entrepreneur. I don't know if I'd have the kind of impact that I do. Another part of my credibility is that I'm a woman designing products for other women.
