Engineer-turned-exec Sutton lays out Imperative's far-reaching strategy for treating stroke patients

Ariel Sutton, general manager of Imperative Care’s stroke business, joins us to explain why she swapped her medical school dreams for the opportunity to wear steel-toed boots and a hard hat as an engineer. Sutton ultimately would marry her love of medicine with her passion for engineering and built a career helping medical device companies of many sizes to build successful programs. Now she’s leading one of the fastest growing neurovascular businesses in the industry. In her new role she’s going to help guide Imperative Care’s plans to target stroke from many different directions, including surgical robotics.
