derrick Suragh

I’m a data and analytics professional with a Master of Science in Data Science and ongoing Ph.D. studies in Bioinformatics and Computational Biology. I bring a disciplined, research-minded approach to statistical analysis, predictive modeling, machine learning, and data visualization—built to translate complex datasets into decisions people can act on.

In my role as Director of Investigations & Intelligence, I lead operational, analytical, and administrative functions supporting client services and business operations. I analyze complex information from multiple sources to identify trends and actionable insights, and I develop reports, executive summaries, and analytical findings for leadership and stakeholders.

My background also includes Criminal Intelligence Officer / Police Officer work with the City of Philadelphia and Police Officer experience with SEPTA Police Department. I conducted analytical investigations involving data review, information validation, and trend identification, produced detailed reports, and communicated findings to internal and external stakeholders while coordinating across agencies and teams.

Alongside my professional work, I’ve applied advanced methods to real healthcare and public health problems through my research projects. For Triple-Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC) survival analysis, I used Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and Cox proportional hazards modeling, building visualizations and interpretation-ready reports. For Digital Health Disparities & Pandemic Prediction Research (HIV Focus), I designed and integrated healthcare datasets, applied SQL and predictive methods, and delivered evidence-based recommendations—grounded in data quality, governance, and stakeholder-ready storytelling.
