Alexis Sinickas

Founder & CEO, Milkdrop

Alex Sinickas is the Founder & CEO at Milkdrop, a company creating breast pump cushions that change the way women feel about pumping.

Milkdrop is a medical product design company, focused on creating beautiful products and experiences for women.

Starting with a stint in investment banking, then working as a civil engineer in Australia and Canada; Alex later specialised in commercialising research before founding Milkdrop in March 2019.

Alex struggled with pumping. In the days, weeks and months that followed the birth of her daughter, Alex began to realise she was not alone. There are many, many women who share her problem.

As many of us unfortunately know from firsthand experience - pumping can cause damage, pain and discomfort, and can make you feel like a cow.

Being an engineer, Alex founded Milkdrop to find ways pumping could be easier, more enjoyable and empowering for women.
