What I'm looking for

I am looking for research or program roles that combine community-engaged fieldwork, policy translation, and project coordination in public health or livelihood initiatives.

I am a human ecology graduate with strong academic honors and hands-on experience in community research, public health, and project support. I have led field data collection, policy-oriented analysis, and community engagement initiatives that inform local planning and program design.

In professional research roles I manage patient-centered studies, develop multi-channel recruitment strategies, and ensure compliance with data protection and industry guidelines. I have supported health-promotion research, conducted community profiling, and delivered clear documentation and policy briefs for stakeholders.

I bring technical competency in Microsoft Office, Canva, WordPress, and foundational Photoshop, fluency in English and Filipino, and applied skills in quantitative and qualitative methods, thematic analysis, and triangulation. I seek roles where I can apply community-based research and policy translation to improve health and livelihood outcomes.
