Sinopse
We’re revisiting an interview with Shavini Fernando, Founder of the life-saving device, OxiWear. She invented OxiWear as a tool for herself, after she was diagnosed with a life-threatening heart and lung ailment. Exposure for her product idea grew exponentially after she won Georgetown’s Bark Tank Pitch Competition in 2018. With the help of a team of medical specialists at Johns Hopkins University Hospital, and other savvy advisors, Shavini and OxiWear were off and running. Originally from Sri Lanka, Shavini is a graduate of Georgetown, and winner of several awards including DC Fem Tech and Citi Ventures.
