Faces of Salvia

Meet Steve Gee, our Senior Electronics Engineer

article
“I design electronics not only out of personal passion, but primarily because I want to make a meaningful impact on people's lives.”

These are the words of the modest Steve Gee, Senior Electronics Engineer at Salvia BioElectronics. Modesty is in his roots, as he was born and raised in the English county of Norfolk. At the age of six, he moved with his family to the Netherlands, settling in the Randstad area where he later studied electrical engineering at Delft University of Technology.

With limited job opportunities at the time, Steve's journey took him to Limburg. His career path included electronics design in burglary protection, printer design at Océ in Venlo, and electronics development for small and medium-sized companies. However, there was one missing element for Steve - a place where everything, from production to research and development, happened under one roof.

"I discovered Salvia on LinkedIn, and the company's medical focus immediately caught my attention. The challenge is that the standards in medical companies are exceptionally high. It's not just about creating something and moving on."

Steve continues: "It is fascinating how an electronic design that starts with numbers and calculations and a schematic sketched on a whiteboard can evolve into a high-tech product. And it's really remarkable that this product can have such a positive impact on someone's life. I mean, electronics is cool, but hearing feedback from patients is a hundred times cooler."

Steve has been with Salvia for nearly five years, overseeing the electronics design of Salvia's migraine implant and working on the MySalvia device, a wearable device that allows patients to activate their migraine therapy.

As Salvia grows and more colleagues join, Steve sees an opportunity to specialize further. "I'm moving from being an electronics designer to being more of a verification engineer, including medical certification. I find that very exciting."

Salvia's device is not yet approved for commercial use. We make no claims about safety or effectiveness.

Page Title (H1)

Header (H2)

A subheading or chapter heading (H3)

Introductory text or a first paragraph of information on this subject. Write as naturally as possible and be nice and specific. If necessary, use AI software to help you get started, but definitely don't use it one-on-one. Search engines can penalize AI content.

Subheading (H4)

Here too there is more than enough room for a good story, an interesting article or background information. If necessary, use a summary:

  • a summary is clear
  • one can see the benefits or features at a glance
  • also use search terms if necessary

Another topic (H3)

Another subheading (H4)

Do not use a Title Header (H1), but use an H2 Header instead. An H1 is actually a title of the page and may only appear once on a web page. The H2 is a kind of chapter and the other headers (H3 to H6) are subheadings and subheadings within the chapter. The order is important for the readability of visitors and search engines.

  1. a summary is clear
  2. one can see the benefits or features at a glance
  3. also use search terms if necessary

This way everything remains easy to read and understandable for the reader. People can also scroll directly to the topic they are interested in.

Paragraph heading style (H5)

This is another example of a heading. The headings H5 and H6 are usually used as paragraph headings, each with their own style.

Paragraph heading style (H6)

In the editor you can really see a difference in font size of all headers, but on the live website they have their own style.

Other options

Use a "quote". That looks like this:

This is a quote!

You can also put texts in bold, italic, etc.
Of maak een link naar een andere pagina of website.
And finally, you can also create Superscript(1) and Subscript(2) text.
