She engages the audience with humor, explaining complex concepts related to flap classifications—like local, regional, and distant flaps—with attention to their circulation and configuration. Throughout the session, she emphasizes the necessity of using precise terminology to communicate effectively with plastic surgeons, while making room for audience participation through quizzes on a platform called Mentimeter.
