Senior SAS/R programmer-analyst specializing in healthcare RWE, survival analysis, and reproducible analytics.
What I'm looking for
I am a detail-oriented Senior Programmer/Analyst with over 11 years applying data science and analytics to healthcare and real-world data (RWD/RWE). I build reproducible R and SAS pipelines, develop R Shiny dashboards, and apply epidemiologic and biostatistical methods—including survival analysis and GLMs—to large claims and EHR datasets to support HEOR and evidence-generation efforts.
I collaborate across multidisciplinary teams to clarify study requirements, deliver high-quality documented results under tight deadlines, and maintain data provenance and audit-ready documentation. My work has included automating claims analyses with SAS macros, developing data quality and validation pipelines, and communicating complex analytic findings clearly to technical and non-technical stakeholders.
