What I'm looking for

I seek a public-health role where I can apply clinical and program management skills, lead community outreach, and grow in epidemiology and health promotion.

I am a passionate public health professional with a BSc in Public Health and hands-on experience across clinical, community, and home-care settings. I have delivered immunization clinics, managed DOT clinics for TB/HIV, supported emergency preparedness, and coordinated multidisciplinary teams to improve health outcomes.

As a Home Care Nursing Supervisor I led quality assurance, care-plan development, staff training, scheduling, and billing operations, increasing care efficiency and ensuring regulatory compliance. I combine clinical skills such as specimen collection, vital-sign monitoring, and wound care with programmatic work in surveillance, health promotion, and epidemiological data collection.

I am a collaborative communicator and dedicated team player who thrives under pressure, drives process improvements, and builds partnerships with stakeholders to deliver measurable public health impact.
