Andreea Popovici

Hello, I'm Andreea Popovici

A medical bioengineering student.

A Little Bit About Me

Get to Know Me

I'm Andreea Popovici, a medical bioengineering student at UMF Iași who likes the space where medicine, hardware, and careful engineering meet. My recent years orbit the MAVIS artificial heart: hands-on lab work, R&D, and showing up with the team on international stages—from ISMCS to the Romanian Pavilion at Expo Osaka.

Alongside that, I've put serious hours into internships (MAVIS center, Antibiotice, tissue engineering labs), conferences, and awards that nudge me to keep standards high. Off the clock, elite Taekwon-Do ITF taught me how to stay composed under pressure; I bring the same focus when I learn, build, or collaborate.

Hands-on marketing for the day-to-day: putting together flyers, catalogs, price sheets, and presentations when sales needs them; keeping promo materials up to date; and making sure what we print and hand out matches what the team is actually selling. I work next to sales so nothing feels disconnected from real customers and real products.
