Q: How do you think IEEE benefits your profession? The world?
A: IEEE has always been at the forefront in matters related to technology and its impact, whether it be through guiding the discourse to benefit humanity, organizing high-quality conferences, generating credible technical literature, developing standards or forging industry-academia consensus. IEEE provides a neutral platform for industry, academia, government and researchers to collaborate and develop technology for the benefit of all. I have been a member of IEEE for over 25 years and it helps me stay up to date on technology, as well as network with peers around the world in furthering enabling solutions for society. The global presence of IEEE definitely helps to make the world a better place for all.
