Physician leader driving public health programs, clinical operations, and community health impact.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I am a seasoned physician and medical director with 15+ years leading multidisciplinary teams, designing clinical care frameworks, and implementing public health programs that expand access and improve outcomes. I have directed large-scale rural health initiatives, built and managed a dispensary serving 500+ weekly patients, and formed strategic partnerships with donors and academic partners to scale women’s health, nutrition, and agribusiness programs.
I excel in healthcare operations, clinical governance, EMR implementation, and program monitoring, delivering measurable improvements—including eliminating waterborne infections during regional outbreaks and boosting operational efficiency by ~50% after EMR rollout. I bring a pragmatic, evidence-based approach to population health, stakeholder engagement, and capacity building to drive sustainable community well-being.
