Scientific research consultant and data analyst building bioinformatics workflows and AI-powered decision-support and analytics apps.

As a freelance Scientific Research Consultant & Data Analyst, I conduct systematic and scoping reviews and analyze research datasets using R and SPSS. My work includes evaluating nutrition evidence against SACN dietary reference values and preparing public health briefings.

For my Birkbeck, University of London research project, I developed Python scripts to process genomic sequences and identify non-coding RNA loci. I predicted RNA structures with RNAfold and SimRNA, then assessed them using RNAssess and UCSF Chimera.

Through the Google AI Professional Certificate, I designed 1Tie Braker, an AI decision-support app that compares options using pros and cons, weighted comparisons, and SWOT analysis. I also developed PrismIQ, an AI-powered data intelligence and decision studio, and OmniMetrics, an interactive sales and financial analytics dashboard.
