Focus on the road map

with Sophia George, PhD




Matt Story | 4/17/2022


Sophia George, PhD, is a Cancer Control and Population Health researcher with Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine. Dr. George is also an Associate Professor in the Division of Gynecological Oncology within the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology. Said another way, she is a real-life superhero. Her story began in Dominica, a Caribbean island, where her family instilled a strong sense of being service oriented at a young age. She has taken that with her across a number of different places but consistently seeking to connect people. She credits the success of her journey to focusing on the roadmap to get to your destination. 


You will learn:

  • How she remains curious and asks questions because the worst thing someone can do is say no.

  • How she has navigated the twists and turns of her journey but ultimately met her goals by focusing on the roadmap.

  • How she expands her range of sources for inspiration to stretch her capabilities and potential.
