What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role in medical imaging physics or radiation protection where I can apply radiation surveys, dosimetry, and QC/QA to ensure ALARA compliance, strengthen technical documentation, and use Python/MATLAB to support data-driven safety decisions.

I’m an Applied Physics graduate with hands-on experience in radiation safety, quality assurance, and medical imaging environments. I’m especially driven by medical imaging physics (X-ray, CT), radiation dosimetry, and applying the ALARA principle to clinical and controlled settings.

In my roles as an Assistant Radiation Safety Officer, Radiation Safety Officer, and Assistant Radiation Protection Technician, I performed radiation surveys, shielding assessments, ionizing radiation leakage checks, and beam calibration/alignment for quality imaging practice. I manage quality control and quality assurance on radiation-emitting devices, conduct dosimeter checks and monitoring of occupancy factors, and document compliance-focused technical reporting and corrective actions.

I also bring data-driven scientific computing skills using Python and MATLAB, alongside Excel for structured analysis and reporting. Alongside my research—measuring ambient radiation levels and studying speed–density relationships—I translate measurements into clear conclusions and standards-based recommendations, and I enjoy collaborating with teams to improve safety outcomes and performance.
