What I'm looking for

I’m looking for roles where I can write and document with scientific rigor—supporting oncology, clinical research, and reproducible workflows—while collaborating cross-functionally, improving processes, and delivering clear outputs that meet strict deadlines.

I’m a scientific writer and biomedical professional who turns complex scientific, clinical, and technical information into clear, structured, and accurate documents. I specialize in report writing, literature interpretation, content organization, and cross-functional communication—always with a strong focus on clarity, consistency, and deadline compliance.

In recent contract work, I designed and managed content production workflows in Notion as a sole health science specialist, coordinating research, writing, and the publication pipeline independently. I conducted literature reviews to support high-quality educational content and collaborated with multidisciplinary teams to ensure scientific accuracy, relevance, and patient-facing credibility.

I’ve also built technical documentation for bioinformatics workflows—structuring complex computational procedures into clear, traceable documentation for research and operational use. Across projects, I’ve supported reproducibility and audit readiness by maintaining documentation, troubleshooting effectively, and translating results into structured analytical outputs; I even contributed reproducible data processing and QC workflows for large-scale clinical and genomic datasets as first author on a peer-reviewed preprint.

My background includes genomics analysis and statistical workflow development, including Kaplan–Meier curves, log-rank tests, and hazard ratio estimation. In one project, I improved workflow efficiency by approximately 80% through automation and documentation standardization, and I continue to bring the same process-improvement mindset to every deliverable.
